About those production problems again,

By looking through today's ads, one wouldn't be able to even notice AMD having any type of problems.

There were 16 AMD based PC advertised in Best Buy, Circuit City, Comp USA, Office Depot, and Office Max. ALL of them were 350 and above. 8 were 400MHz. Almost no Celeron PCs were advertised.

In Best Buy's ad alone, there were 4 different 400s. One by IBM, the rest by Compaq. One of the Compaq's was advertised in between two PIIs. One of the PIIs was aimed at gaming, the other at digital imaging. The AMD one was aimed at home office.

Paul - I noticed one special thing for you: You can purchase a Compaq 333MHz K6-2 notebook today, not the end of month that Compaq earlier said. Guess you don't have to go to travel to Japan after all.

There are 2 versions of the Compaq K6-2 333 notebook advetised, one $1500 (HPA screen), the other $1800 (active matrix).

Was 400000 350MHz and greater processors or 400000 400MHz processors made in Q4 announced at the CC?
