Priest: Quit on crying over OEMs using AMD chip. We have been over this many many time already since the launch of the K6. Everytime an OEM announced to buy AMD chips your bitterness level increases. Just look at the fact. The fact is that there is no single reason for the OEM just to use a single source for CPU supplier. It is stupid. Business goal is to maximize revenue. By offering a wide variety of products they will be able to satisfy a larger group of consumers with different tastes and preferences. Toshiba, GTW, and Packard Bell will all use AMD chips. Dell is an exception. Dell is Intel's Prom Queen. Maxwell
