From that article you posted"RE:"Indeed, Gateway's decision was most likely a direct result of its financial situation, analysts say.
The embattled company has cut staff, closed international offices and closed a number of its Country Store outlets, among other moves, as it faces the worst PC market ever"

Now I see a Gateway add on TV with Ted Waite talking to a Cow. Next thing he will be talking to himself...
I thought Dells Adds with the obnoxious punk were bad.

Sure is going to be interesting who survives all this...

Fallope,

<Emard said Gateway's decision meets three objectives: cutting costs, simplifying product offerings and increasing overall customer satisfaction.>

Though this was not a direct quote, it is interesting to finally hear customer satisfaction as one of the reasons OEM's select Intel over AMD. Until now, one could argue this notion was just Intel/Intelabee hype.
