Petz,

<You just don't get it. People are not used to paying $1.5K for computers with AMD chips in them. Businesses are not used to buying computers with AMD chips in them at all. Both of these need one thing to change: TIME>

Jeez, thanks for teaching me how this industry works.

<I can live with 50% per quarter, can you? >

What has you being able to live with 50% per quarter got anything to do with this? I am sure there are people out there who can live with far less - so what?

Can you put forth a rational explanation of why it makes sense for AMD to be sold out of product or being short of motherboards when a huge fab is sitting nearly idle and when AMD's competitor does not have a product that can compete with Athlon? Looking forward to it.

Chuck
