<You think AMD ASPs were up >10%? Well I can verify a big jump in the last week (~5% on Bartons)>

The odds are, the ASPs are up by 15-20% and units by 5-10%. I say it based on the following.

- Press release and conference call talk about "significant" ASP increases (as opposed to "slight")
- Some benefit in ASPs from K8 (even at the tens of Ku level of shipments, it helps)
- Some benefit from "record" laptop CPU shipments (even though the laptop ASPs get much less premium to what Intel gets, any laptop shipment growth helps)
- Very small amount of Duron shipments (helps pull-up the ASPs quite a bit since these seem to have been shipping Durons in the $25-40 range)
- Refusing to even comment on if units or ASPs was the dominant driver for revenues growth

All this is consistent with quite a big ASP jump and Intel's statement about the segment where market share gains occurred.

If you add to this what was not stated in the conference call: AMD in no form has either denied Intel's market share comments or made any claims of market share (and they would have if there was something positive to be said there)
