CJ, > When you have a margin that is in the single digits, price is a huge competitive factor.

And flooding the market with an extra million PCs built around an extra million dumped CPUs isn't going to have an effect on profit margins?

I think we're at the point where speculation is filling in the blanks. I've made my point already. The OEM does not have to accept the dumped CPUs. You think they do because of market conditions and because it's real easy for the OEM to just add it to their whole business strategy. Assumptions battling assumptions.
