Summary of systems being sold in San Diego by small computer
stores which build their own computers. Based on advertise-
ments in the weekly ComputorEdge flyer -- a free publication
in San Diego county, weighted by the number of locations of
each company. Small ads advertising a single system excluded,
also system configurations without pricing.

Trends
------
The most notable thing is that Coppermines are still as rare
as last week with only 20% penetration. These are all
selling the 733, but nothing faster. Meanwhile, Athlon
penetration continued to rise to 71%, the highest ever and
the Athlon 750 is still easier to find than a Coppermine of
any speed (23% vs. 20%) despite the fact that it was
launched a month later.

I did another check of my data and found this amazing fact:
In 20 of 35 locations, an AMD system is the fastest system
available (highest clock speed)
