Cirrus, <While Intel may have Willys stockpiled for a launch on Nov. 20, motherboards will have to ramp from ZERO because the 850 chipset required a new stepping.>

Well thank God AMD didn't have motherboard shortages when they released Duron!

<If Intel does another one of their joke launches at the end of November what will happen to the people that can't get their 1.5GHz P4 in time for the holidays? >

I think the idea is NOT to do a joke launch, even for the holidays. OEMs sure aren't happy that Intel can't supply them with enough chips to meet demand. And believe me, Intel knows it, too. (Don't ask me to explain the 1.13 GHz P3 launch, though.)
