More on the Samples Intel might introduce nect week...courtesy of the AMD for lunch bunch. forbes.com NEW YORK. 4:21 PM EST-Intel Corp. (nasdaq: INTC) may have an 800 megahertz version of its Pentium III Coppermine chip, but can it really stay ahead in the megahertz derby? Published reports say that Intel might introduce 750- and 800-MHz versions of its Coppermine chips later this month, way ahead of the originally slotted release date of January 2000. Intel's stock has jumped on the news, closing up $6.50 to $78.94. Rival chipmaker AMD (nyse: AMD) closed down $0.50 a share to $27.13. But there is more to this story than meets the eye. For example, Intel will provide samples of its high-speed chips only to its OEM partners, not ship the actual products in volume. And Intel does not really have a large defensible lead in the megahertz race. Sources close to AMD believe that any lead Intel might get by introducing 750- and 800-MHz versions of their Pentium III Coppermine chip would be temporary. AMD is likely to introduce an 800-MHz version of its Athlon chip in the first week of January, and will also introduce a 900-MHz version of the chip later in the first quarter, perhaps as early as the second week of February. The 1-GHz version of Athlon will ship in June. An AMD spokesperson declined to comment on the timeline of its new product introduction.' .... Love that Forbes tax plan too! Jim
