re: "I don't think we know enough about him (Lary Hollatz) to jump to any conclusions. He may just as well be the major contributor to AMD's success." He may be a "major contributor" all right but not in the way that you mean. I actually do know him to some extent. I have spoken with him by phone several times. He has been personally responsible for the ramp ups at fab 25 since the failed attempts of the K5 and the much delayed K6. I suspect it was partially his struggle with A. Raza that led to Raza's departure. Given Ruiz's "hands on" style and his reputation for demanding results, V.P. Hollatz's (he is actually a very pleasant and likeable fellow) departure comes as no surprise to me. Patient Regards, DARBES
