Elmer,

when will they post a profit?

Good question. Intel has been able to choke off K6-2 profitability through their market segmentation strategy. It seems like AMD's profitability is dependent on a timely K7 delivery and/or a rapid ramp of K6-III at 450+ MHz.

I'm totally baffled why the Intel market segmentation strategy has:
1) worked
and
2) been permitted by the FTC

Intel is shipping essentially the same product at widely varying price points.
