Yougang - Re: 'Look like this refund is AMD's responsibility to bear. Aside from big disount to OEMs like IBM and CPQ, AMD has to give out another 100 bucks if Athlon machine owners chose to send the refund request to AMD. Since the ratio of refund is hard to predict, the real Athlon ASP should be negatively impacted, but how much would be? Are they going to assume that only 50% consumers care to seek refund?" Gee - this sounds too good to be true ! AMd is going to REALLY RAKE in the PROFITS when they honor ALL THOSE REBATES ! Let's see....if a Million PCs are sold, that's a $100 Million Rebate ! That's almost as good as AMD's Class Action Settlements ! Paul
