TGPTNDR, Re: "Production shipments of the mobile AMD Athlon XP processors, including models 1400+ and 1500+, began in first quarter of 2002."

Slow, unavailable parts, just like I said. It was a paper launch, plain and simple, just so that AMD could proclaim themselves as having met schedule. Looks like you fell for it, but the truth is they slipped, so they shipped a couple hundred sub-standard parts to overseas companies like Packard Bell and Epson Direct, whose standards were low enough to take them. I hadn't seen a farce like this since Intel launched the 1.13GHz Pentium III. Why would you want to justify such a stupid move? I would like to understand your motives.
