Paul, Re: Mercury news. In todays mercury news business section: GOOD NEWS for INTEL!!!! Apparently they are giving the small mom and pop guys a price cut so they can buy on more of a playing field with the big guys. Essentially they are going to sell direct as I understood it and bypass the traditional disti who in the CPU side does no design in but simply takes orders. Cut out the middleman and let Intel and the reseller make more money. Very smart move IMHO. Hopefully AMD will follow. Although AMD's ties to disti run very deep. Regards, Kash.
