Chuck,

I don't really buy into this marketing side. I think AMD should offer for sale sell today what they make today. If they do make a small number of 1.5 GHz chips, these chips should be placed on the market at appropriate price, for example $2,000 as Tim suggested.

If someone bids $2,000, fine, if nobody bids $2,000 than your (or marketing department) scenario comes to play: The chips will just be sitting there until they become $1,000 or $750 chips, that can fit easier to the marketing schemes.

Think of it as an auction vs. a backroom deal. Hopefully this auction site where AMD is participating will be ready for business soon, to make my suggested approach workable.

Joe
