Gene - re: " I also can't believe that Compaq, (or any maker for that matter), is going to pay a much higher price for the same chip, as apparently Paul contends. "

I don't contend that Compaq pays $229 or any other higher price for the K6-300. WHere did you get that crazy idea?

What I stated is that AMD is PRICING the same chip (K6-300) at $229 that is also selling for $99. Pricing it and selling it are TWO different things - as you should know.

My guess is that Compaq is paying the $99 price. Why would they pay AMD a premium when AMD is hot to trot to sell CPUs at a loss ?
