Well... let's suppose that this chip was burning holes in PC Boards and melting plastic ZIF sockets. If so, then those customers are probably already a little nipped. Let's suppose that the only way out of the situation is to delay the project for whatever reason and then suggest that they wait just a little while longer for something totally awesome and cool-running. The customers are still a little nipped, but if they are told that they won't have to do any redesigning and that they get a little while longer to work out all of their chipset bugs, then they might not be so nipped come introduction.
