Just a quick thought about that. Do you think that maybe they could be just a little POed because Gateway has achieved some sort of most favored son status similar to Dell's status with Intel. I don't think that Gateway has that special status. If they do have it they got it cheep. Dell is 100% Intel Gateway says they were moving to 50% AMD. (don't know if they are there yet). Tim

If all AMD's production is in fact sold out what's the difference? ajb, I don't think they would order at all from AMD if they were PO'd. I am wondering like Andreas if Intel is exerting some sort of pressure. As for AMD's production being sold out, I thought it was only Q3......do you have news that it is sold until 2010 ? ;~)). If so, then I won't worry about it. But let it be known, I hate losing business for any reason. ted
