>>Athlon?

I meant what new PC volume is going to absorb the new Athlons, which are an addition to the worldwide supply of microprocessors?

You can't just add more microprocessors to the marketplace and expect the prices to remain constant.

People on this forum and elsewhere have raised the point that Fab 25 will be converted to flash, that eventually the Intel fabs will be retired, and that overall microprocessor demand is steadily rising. All of these may come true, but to me the important point is that they all must come true for AMD to be as highly profitable as so many hope.
