a) a sign on a shelf that says out of stock and we'll let you get on a waiting list, and b) enough stock that everyone who wants one for $599 can easily find one at that price or below.
The reason I said "mass availability" as meaning New Egg earlier was precisely because if something is out of stock, New Egg will very clearly mark it as out of stock--and they'll take the listing down out of searches if it's been out of stock entirely for two weeks. A lot of sites will try to make it look like something is in stock to get you to order it.
lol...
yeah like Ninvida has no experience with this.
How much you want to wager I will have a 1080 in my hands before the end of June?
here is the wager
I'm not claiming that you personally won't get one. If you check obsessively and are willing to pay far above MSRP, then maybe you can get one yourself by the end of June. They'll slowly trickle out for a while until the large volume production orders have had time to show up at retail. My claim is only that they won't be widely available, to the extent that anyone who wants one can readily find one at or below MSRP.
I think I will be able to get one fairly easy by the end of June and I think what you are describing will happen by the end of July.
Just an observation, some of us (such as myself) have been only been PC gaming for decades (speaking for myself about 36 years with some years not gaming but for the most part at least every week and ONLY PC games, so we have seen many iterations of video card deployments over the years.
So I did some research on the NBA finals and found that no team from Cleveland or Oklahoma City has ever won the finals before:
Therefore, because of past history, the Cavs and Thunder have no hope of winning the finals. After all, LeBron James and Kevin Durant have nothing to do with who is going to win, but only the history of who has won in the past.
Well, what's the difference between that and your claims that all that matters is typical past timing, and not how many of the necessary chips exist in this universe?

its called statistics isnt?
chances of one option being true vs another option being true.
Before the Micron announcement I put my money on the statistically more likely outcome and it appears my bet paid off. I based that prediction on my feeling that Nivida knows what they are doing and would not release a card they could not sell anyone for 9 months. could it have gone the other way? of course but this time I got lucky in my prediction unlike my prediction on Steam Machines which I was wrong. This is why they call it a prediction. Personal road to sucess? is admiring when a prediction fails.
(also, had someone told me that at launch Oculus Rift would not be aviable to people for several month on pre-order but could buy them from retials in limited quanity I would have bet that it would not happen, but it did)
Please do not respond to me, even if I ask you a question, its rhetorical.
