No, Australia does not have issues at all with electricity supply.
You are probably getting confused with South Africa and as such I don't think your comment warrants being modded insightful.
I was just having some crazy thoughts, how about this;
AMD liceses HT, cHT and various x86 technologies to nVidia to help them get competetive in the x86 market.
AMD/ATi and nVidia manufacture all of their discrete graphics chips on the cHT platform effectively locking intel out of the CPU + discrete graphics market segment.
Intel is confined to their own integrated platform for low in Desktop and and Laptop configurations.
AMD/ATi and nVidia reap the spoils of an enlarged market now that intel is locked out.
AMD becomes the new intel, nVidia becomes the new AMD (in terms of the current x86 landscape)
