Blauboad your arguments have no consistent logical thought
Process . . . Please don't take this as a personal attack

I don't have to, because you're only making yourself look bad.

The Thread subject and argument here was that the centrino margins where not so good.

I never commented on the margins of individual Centrino units.

In what you are quoting, I only talked about sell-through, and indirectly, yields.

What do you think the is likelihood of a relatively new product becoming stagnate,

It happens all the time. Dell's whole business model is built to eliminate this problem. That would be a funny thing to do if it weren't ever a problem, wouldn't it?

furthermore the price premium as you refer
to it appears to be holding as would be expected for the ramp perhaps even slightly better.

That is EXACTLY my point.

Why did you even bother to make such a statement in the first place,

Because it is true, and you don't contest that.

can you see how it may be interpreted by someone else that the person making the statement lacks an understanding in the basic dynamics of CPU pricing.

I can see how it might be misinterpreted that way. But that isn't my problem.

And by the way, I have seen AMD rebates on some Athlon model processors. I'm sure Intel has done it at one time or another too. Maybe they don't have your understanding of the "basic dynamics of CPU pricing"?

I won't be replying to you on this matter again.
