You can bet your bottom dollar if it comes down to it, INTC will give DELL priority over CPQ because DELL committed long ago to ONLY use INTC processors !!!!

NW..... In the real world, suppliers cater to their customers. They don't bite the hand that feeds them, especially when that hand is attached to a giant like CPQ. Actually, in this case, one feeds and needs the other. No way is INTC gonna snub CPQ. Jimbo has ZERO business experience, so he isn't a valid source on this subject. Now that I think of it, Jimbo isn't a valid source on much of anything. jajajajajajaja El

Last I heard they still were. I also don't totally buy into the Dell/Intel 'blood pact'. I posted an interview of Dell's Mort Topfer a couple weeks back where he stated they would look at someone else for chip supply if the circumstances warranted it. He said for the first time, AMD 'had it's act together'...
