"Since the article is not there, perhaps your memory is poor, as I would/have NEVER stated that HP would drop AMD."

The problem with one-liners is there isn't much information. mas posted a clip where Hector talks about taking market share from Intel in the third quarter and your response is that HP has a different opinion. Now the natural assumption is that HP is going so strongly to Intel that AMD won't be gaining any market share. Which would mean that HP is greatly reducing the amount of AMD machines they are selling, to the point that it more than equals what Dell and the others have added. Which would mean that AMD would virtually vanish from their lineup.

Later, you retcon this by saying that HP won't lose market share to Dell. Which is not a statement I would argue with. HP is in a strong position with respect to Dell, which is doing a credible imitation of a headless chicken.
