RE:"i think the reason the sony's are sold out is that sony has moved to only Intel based systems. You can no longer order the Duron Laptop online and all the new systems are PIV based...I have bought quite a few of the Sony Athlon's (in fact i'm typing on one right now)..but it looks to me like for the short term, Sony has gone intel..."

I was afraid of that...
AMD would be the odd man out again...

Also infers the PC market is very sick and Intel is making unbelievable behind the scene deals with OEMs...
Just look at the prices AMD is charging...Intel is likely matching or bettering those prices...
They do have the luxury of being abble to be a little more selective about it though...
