I think that Jerry actually stated something along the lines of: for the first time our release schedule is being determined not by technical considerations but by our marketing department... I didn't put that in quotes because I am sure that I mangled it pretty badly and it's a far cry from an actual quote but I do agree that AMD is fighting a marketing battle and not just about 1GHz, They have to sell their pitch to everyone from the OEMs, end users, and corporate IT all the way down to the analysts and investment community which still seem to be very skeptical. Eprinephrine, to take your comments one step further, I think Sanders was saying that AMD will let the market dictate where AMD should be Mhz-wise. I think by saying that, he was suggesting that AMD was more concerned about making $ than proving its technical prowess. At least that was my take on it. ted
