Jozef, <AMD and Cyrix can't compete in multiprocessor server market, because their chips don't support multiprocessing. But question is, what is the percentage of servers that require multiple processors?> AMD and Cyrix chips do support multiprocessing based on a joint MPU spec agreeded on by both companies. The problem is they are not competitive, noone uses them. <The market for servers that don't require multiple processors is big enough, probably bigger than multiprocessor market. There is no reason why AMD or Cyrix chips cannot be used.> Please list the AMD or Cyrix servers currently on the market. I can't find any. Why do you suppose that is? Are you entilted to a refund for your bug riddled K6? techweb.com EP
