Hello Steve,

Re: Re-marked Athlons.

I recieved three replacement K7-700 MHz processors from AMD this afternoon. There was no letter associated with the returned processors, however last Friday I did recieve an email from the AMD Tech Support Center (the AMD office to which I returned the original processors). That email stated nothing about the particulars of this incident but rather was a customer satisfaction rating form for me to fill in and return. Apparently AMD had no problems verifying what I'd observed, I'm sure they ripped the cases off and checked the cores but they did not state this.

The replacement processors are all week 45 of 1999 0.25 processors. I tested each one late this afternoon and each is in fine shape. BTW, the three replacement processors show NO evidence of having been tampered with! <hehe>

Hard day on Wall Street for AMD and other techs. Someday (soon) it will become apparent exactly what a fine position our company is in, but right now it seems AMD is like Dr. Pepper, "So misunderstood" by so many. Tech is NOT going to disappear! To the contrary "tommorrow" is made up of the techs of today. Days like today give many bargin priced opportunities almost everywhere. I encourage all to look at the longer picture and focus on that distant mountain range of growth ahead. Short term market moves are unpredictable and most of the time is unwarranted. Just MHO.

Kindest regards,
CrazyMan
