Check out what happened with the low-end computers that Wal-Mart had
for sale last Christmas...they sold out so fast that Wal-Mart made
another deal to get restocked with more of that crap.

Wal-Mart does over 100 Billion Dollars in business and it was recently
said that it couldn't get any bigger because they're already everywhere.

Somebody forgot...there's a world outside our borders. The WMT stores
in Brazil and Argentina are so packed that there's a two hour wait to
get into the parking lots.

AMD will make money not on top-end stuff (unless that NexGen K6 is as
great as PC World says it was in the Benchmark), but it will make money
and lots of it when production ramps back up and they spit out those
cheapie chips by the trillions...and they do have the capacity to do it.

AMD is not competition for Intel...never tried to be.
