Chuck and Petz, <Petz: The above scenario means that until the Spitfire ramps, we have to keep K6x.> Chuck: This is what I have been saying ! <Petz: After Spitfire ramps, we can get phase out K6x if all of the following are true: ... 3. Super7 board makers spontaneously embrace Socket A, or are given financial incentives to do so.> Chuck: I kind of agree with #3 in the sense that it makes no sense to ramp Spitfire without infrastructure being enabled. So AMD has to work with MB vendors to make that happen. Thanks for a nice discussion on this subject. I agree with you guys that K6X can be phased out once Spitfire is fully ramped - but what about Notebook market where volumes are expected to explode? Don't you think K6X with its ultra low power, will have a role to play in the Notebook arena even after the full ramp of Spitfire? Goutama
