Hello Ali, Re: "I remember that. But I do not remember massive business accounts. The platform was probably not enough "solid" to get into business accounts.." How much more solid than "100% solid" can a platform get? It seems to me there are "mindset" and "reliable supplier" reasons for failure to capture business accounts to date. The "mindset" thing is a Ford-Chevy sort of thing which is based on very little substance. AMD as a "reliable supplier" for the past year has been proven, an another supplier of CPU's has taken the place vacated by AMD. Just look at the Gateway usage and expansion plans to 50/50. Perhaps Gateway's usage expansion plans are in the business area (I hope). Like you and most others on this thread I await the capture of "massive" business accounts. AMD's products are price/performance most-bang-for-the-buck leaders, I know of no business where that's not important. Kindest regards, CrazyMan
