difference in part lines? warehousing?
dell doesn't own any warehouses for parts. the trucks line up to the manufacturing plants, and they literally take the parts they need off the trucks as they need them.
it wouldn't take much, maybe a day or two, to convert a couple of intel assembly lines into amd assembly lines...
i hope the rumors are true. i have always stayed away from dell simply because they don't offer amd solutions, as i am a very loyal amd customer. however, lately i have been looking for a laptop, and and i'm afraid that i may have to buy one from hp since they do offer amd laptops.
