Charles - <Whether they are sandbagging or not is a good debate but, assuming they can sandbag, the benefit is in sandbagging. Just think about it - If AMD has K7-700 today, would it price it higher than $800+ tag that they currently have on K7-650? There will come a point in time the answer would be different. For now, if they can, why would AMD not sandbag? I would likt to hear your thoughts.>

I simply believe that the 650's would be a lot more visible and available. I do not see very much point in sandbagging for many reasons. JMO with a various hodge podge of data points.

IF AMD is sandbagging, I am very curious to see how in the hell it affects their bottom line, and whatever else they are trying to achieve strategically. As of now, I don't believe they have the luxury of sandbagging, even if they wanted to..
