KIS,

I believe it was you that was stating AMD was going to take market share from INTC:

"Gateway to stop buying AMD microprocessors - WSJ
NEW YORK, Sept 20 (Reuters) - Computer maker Gateway Inc
<GTW.N> plans to stop buying microprocessors from chipmaker
Advanced Micro Devices Inc. <AMD.N>, the Wall Street Journal
reported in Monday's online edition.
Citing "people close to the matter," the paper said Gateway,
which in February unveiled its first personal computers using
AMD chips, will not continue with purchases after its current
models are replaced.
The paper said sources told it AMD believes it lost the
Gateway business because Intel began offering Gateway more
favourable terms than it had previously.
The paper said the move is other sign of rival Intel Corp.'s
<INTC.O> renewed gains in the price-competitive, consumer PC
market.
But the Journal said a Gateway spokesman declined comment
other than to say the company continues to sell existing PCs
using AMD chips and won't preclude AMD from future bids.
