Cirruslvr,

<It has been said AMD's 1.2GHz is competitive with Intel's 1.7GHz. Well from a business perspective, that doesn't amount to ANYTING unless AMD's 1.2GHz is fetching a price close to Intel's 1.7GHz. >

This is the most concise way to present AMD's desktop story going forward. AMD, on desktops, is going to be relegated to desktop low-to-mid range going forward.

Currently AMD is selling 1.4Ghz parts at the same ASP as Intel's 1 GHz PIII (if not lower). Unless corporate penetration happens, it is "high-end game over" for AMD on the desktop side.

The only hope for 2001 for high-end dollars is in the laptop segment.
