Certainly some parts weren't being sold, the question was how many? Speculation at the time was 2 to 3 million - the market was too good for it to be more than 3 million and much less than 2 million would have been close enough to normal inventory fluctuations to not result in a warning. I can't find a link right now to where I read that. Do you think the revenue warning was due to Intel being sold out?

Dan-

Where does the part about all this being due to order cancellations come in? That was the point of Elmer's post.

This is pure speculation. It could be weaker ASPs due to AMDs price war.

You claimed that 2-3 million units in inventory was generally considered to be accurate. I've never seen that anywhere but from you.
