Intel's Pine Trail Out Q4, Possibly October

[suppliesidejesus]

Nvidia said it would incur a $150 to $200 million charge for the quarter, with the money covering warranty, repair and return and replacement...Rather than recall faulty notebooks, manufacturers of laptops affected have gone through certain steps to help cover the problem. HP and Dell extended warranties and released new BIOS software that increased the fan speed to better cool the GPU – hopefully warding off any defects from showing up. Apple promised owners of the GeForce 8600M GT-equipped that it would repair for free any faulty GPUs within two years of purchase date, regardless of Apple Care coverage.

This is from a Tom's article. The OEMs were the ones in charge who were handling the customers. Nvidia paid those OEMs for the all of the warranty, return, replace, etc. etc.
