wbmw,

The second was a link to Intel's website showing their price list, which is available to their broad customer and distributor base.

Reseller Mike said his distributor has these in stock, so it is available to broad base of white box OEMs. Big OEMs have everything available to them. Here is what is available to retail buyers:

As you can see, everybody can buy one. Or one million.

So either you are making up the facts as you go along, or you are viewing something you have not yet presented.

It is not "yet to be presented". It is deliberately hidden from casual CFA looking at Intel prices. Intel does not want its desperation to be known to financial community.

Since when did Via become Intel's main concern, and since when does Intel need to ship enough processors to compete in this market

Because Via has some market share. It may only be 1 to 3%, but Intel is looking for unit market share, and desperatly wants to stop bleeding now.

Otellini and Bryant did not appreciate that analysts came just short of calling them liars in the last CC over the lost market share.
