That's exactly correct actually.
That's why Gateway is dropping their AMD line soon. AMD had problems with
the processors and couldn't supply Gateway with enough, causing a 5 week
backlog (which lost Gateway $200 million BTW...).
Also the other problem with AMD right now is that the Athalon processors are
relying on boards made in Taiwan, and of course the earthquakes caused
problems for the board manufacturers meaning that there is a shortage of
boards that support the new chip...
If they don't watch it they might just sink like Cyrix did.
