stephen...The fools reference the just in time inventory model. My experience with this type of ordering system is that it eventually backfires. The providers of those supplies will get tired of jumping everytime the mouse clicks and at the same time carrying all the risk in their inventory. I was on the supplier end in my business and this model wore out its welcome. My guess is INTC does not think much of it and when market conditions change shipping schedules have a way of changing as well. steve
