Apple should have ordered a sensible amount then - the problem stems 
with them ordering 100 chips instead of 1,000,000 at a time. IBM commit 
their fabs to do runs for other people, then Apple cry when IBM turn 
round and say, but you only asked for 100!

If Apple had taken their collective thumbs out of their arses, I don't 
think this would have ever been an issue.
