<Jerry's most brilliant stroke in the latest CC is the revealation that AMD is prepared to call truce with Intel. ... Officially abondoned the 25% dicsount policy starting from K7.>

Sorry if what I'm about to say comes across as biting, but this so-called "truce" is bogus. Why would AMD price a 600 MHz Athlon under the starting price of a 600 MHz Pentium III (coming out in August), if Athlon is higher performance (thus higher demand) and lower volume?

Reminds me of Milosevic trying to look like a dove in the middle of NATO's military action by presenting half-hearted "peace" plans. Both are trying to make themselves look like victims in an effort to win sympathy.
