>>If AMD is not qualified, why didn't CPQ drop K6? The company can drop it anytime. << Kenith, what is your point?! If you can read, you should be able to understand the consequence of CPQ not dropped AMD: they try to copy Dell's mode, but keep using unqualified vender like AMD. You should tell me why DELL, a BTO leader, did NOT and promise will not to use AMD chips. And let me tell you that a true BTO model need a reliable source for CPU supply where AMD cannot deliver. The more OEMs transfer their business model to BTO, the less chance they will ever use AMD as a CPU source.
