Bob,

Thanks for the post.

Clearly the market is very complex at the high end.

For business2business servers I can see value in high end servers due to support and RAS(tony viola RIP) all they way up to Tandem servers which are designed to be Non-Stop.

For lots of other apps. Linux is winning out and the K7 will be the lowest cost/highest performance Linux system out there.

I suspect it will do very well in that market as well as the NT workstation market.

I am talking about the version of L7 with larger full speed cache in the slot B motherboards coming later this year.

I suspect dual K7 systems running at 800M+ will run well under $5-6K.

Their performance should easily exceed a Quad Xeon 600 with 2Mb cache - not that such a beast is available today.

Such sales will be significant to AMDs bottom line in Q1 2000 methinks.

thanks again for your post.

Regards,

Kash
