Duke, >I don't usually do this because it is unscientific and inadequately sampled and myopic and impiricistically too casual, BUT, I was at the San Rafael (Ca.) CompUSA store yesterday and they are SOLD OUT of almost every notebook computer, even the demos off the shelves, and "Andy" (the Clerk) said business was good.

Thanks for the report. Every store's data is important. BTW, that's the kind of CYA you used in there that I was chiding the AMD and AMD RB threads for NOT using on those extremely biased AMD threads.

Lawyers reading my wacked logic feel free to set me straight.

I noticed the same thing here in West Palm Beach at Best Buy and CompUSA. Either they are switching to XP models or sales are very brisk. A lot of emty spaces where the Athlon notebooks are located. Sold out. A few Durons...
