<Volumes !!>

Yes, volumes.

<What a joke !>

Joke is some one like you making an ass of himself believing the bogus 1GHz launch and 1.13GHz launch.

<Why aren't 1.1 GHz ThumperTurds availble in QUANTITY ?>

You may be confusing PIII 1GHz availability with 1.1GHz Thunderbird availability. 1.1GHz Athlons are available for anyone who wants to buy. Au contraire, even Compaq, the largest OEM in the world, cannot get any reasonable quantities of 1GHz PIII 6 months after launch.

<what is an AMD VOLUME - 1000 units>

Volume is having sufficient parts available when customer asks for it. Good examples would be 1.1G ThunderBird or a 933MHz PIII or a 700MHz Xeon - they are available in volume. The unit volumes shipping can be quite different in each case.

A bad example would be 1GHz PIII - where only one customer could get sufficient number of parts 6 months after introduction.

A joke would be 1.13GHz PIII - which was launched with less than 1000 units in hand - and that too non-functional - because Intel thought there are enough clueless or biased people out there like you to claim Intel technology leadership.

Do you understand that? Has it sunk into you what volumes and product launches mean?
