I am beginning to believe this to be true (AMD needing dell vs. dell needing AMD) more and more every day. The day AMD adopts dell it will be a dell need only. AMD need will have evaporated already.

re: I think it's quite well understood now that no amounts of discounts on the CPU can move the box if the customer does not want that CPU LINE ITSELF!!

on the contrary, almost all business buyers pay attention to the box makers and not CPU. That is the reason why AMD have some problems penetrating corporate market.

Very few power hungry users would go to IBM and actually request an Opteron system (as I did last week)
