Tony, Paul, Barry, and all others:
Wondering if you have can answer my question.
Looking more closely at AMD's numbers, they report $600 or so million in cash, which at a burn rate of -200 million/ quarter could place them in jeopardy by the end of the year. However, they have stated that they have 1-2 million K6 chips unsold and sitting in a warehouse, presumably virtually worthless. I do not see this liability anywhere in the AMD statements. At what point would AMD have to declare this writeoff? I would think it would be substantial, $50 million or so at current ASPs.
Thanks for any insight you can provide,

Gary
