Pravin,

RE: RAmbus yields....amazing if true.

Did you see this from the Register:

Intel cancels Pentium III supplies for February

Intel has told distributors across the world that it cannot supply Pentium III parts in February.

One major European distributor told The Register today that it was told that its February backlog allocation of Pentium IIIs is no more.

That represents nearly 15,000 parts that the distributor will not be able to supply, because of Intel's move. Each part would have been worth $150 each to its bottom line.

It also begs questions about Intel's public position on Slot One microprocessors and the flip chip parts the company is attempting to push into the market.

The distributor said that AMD's backlog on Athlon parts was still intact and that it had no problems meeting demand from its dealers.

The European position was backed up by an American distributor who said his February backlog was cancelled too.

He thought that the Pentium III parts were being diverted directly to vendors in the Chip Direct programme. ©
