Tenchusatsu: <<It's just as foolish for AMD to hope that the industry will rebel against Intel as it is currently doing against Microsoft. Assuming that "the whole industry hates Intel" (in your own words) is just plain dumb. Even if this unlikely scenario were true, companies aren't going to simply flock to AMD just because they're "Anything But Intel." There must be other reasons. That's why AMD needs to actively build relationships with companies like Compaq.>> AMD doesn't have to hope for anything. It is in the business to compete. Intel is the one that is creating problems for itself. You think I made up "the whole industry hates Intel". Where have you been? Too young to read history and to analyze facts for yourself? Have you talked to OEMs, MB makers, graphic card makers, PC makers, ISV ? If not then I suggest you do research for yourself. Why you keep saying that Compaq is the only company that is pro-AMD? What ever happen to HP? They had the best selling Pavilion K6-2 back in Sept.? What about IBM? What about Acer and Gateway? What about NEC and Fujitsu? Wake up man. Without CPQ, AMD can still sell K7 systems for IBM ,HP, Acer, Gateway, etc. Maxwell
