Joe - RE: "A lot of us wonder that about AMD. Why do you think it will be different for them, this time?"

Well, Jerry is still at the helm and with Atiq gone now, management will probably unfortunately be the same.

Important differences -

Fastest X86 chip that will hold the lead for over two months (isn't that how long after the K6 came out that the PII came out?)

Athlon production seems to be fine

Tier 1 OEMs will use the Athlon in August

Athlon should scale well in MHz

What isn't know is if motherboard makers can do their part, and how the market will accept the Athlon.
