Read about a typical AMD purchaser Got this from the yahoo thread: "I just purchased a Compaq Presario 5170 with a 350 Intel Pentium II inside. My brother purchased the same computer only his was the one with an AMD 350. We both purchased them at Best Buy in December 98. I paid $1998.00 ($1360. with rebates and 15 inch monitor included) My brother has the Compaq with AMD 350 inside and a 17 inch monitor. He paid $1500.00 ($1250. after rebates.) I have the Intel inside. I think I am the one who got ripped off. This piece of shit Intel Pentium II cost me $110. more and he got the 17 inch monitor. I know he has the better deal. I see no difference between his AMD and my Pentium II, so I am buying my daughter a laptop and you can bet it will have AMD inside! And the next computer I buy for me will be AMD inside as long as their price is lower than Intel. " messages.yahoo.com@m2.yahoo.com I've already said this, but it can't be said enough - AMD can sell them, but can they make them?
