Dell = AMD shortage?

Apparently, AMD's decision to partner with Dell has increased demand so much for AMD processors that it has hurt the small distributors who "made AMD," according to this article. I think it's funny and sort of ironic that AMD, once the little guy who had no hope of taking on Intel is now so popular that its fabs can't keep up. It's also ironic if the chip maker for the rest of us screws over the little guys who sold nothing but AMD because their chips were cheaper.
