Re: Better reread what I said Re-read what I wrote, and how you interpreted it. I wrote that retailers were not advertising systems faster than 1.2GHZ Athlons and 1.4GHZ P4s. You concluded this meant it was because they didn't like the cooling solution. If it applies to AMD it certainly applies to Intel. They haven't been advertising the top 2 grades of Athlon while they've been avoiding the top 4 grades of Intel. My guess would be that they're trying move out old inventory, but if you want to think it's because the top 4 speed grades from Intel and the top 2 grades from AMD aren't stable, feel free. But don't claim that not advertising AMD chips means they have cooling concerns while not advertising Intel chips doesn't mean they have cooling concerns.
