Steve, Re: With all due respect, I think the development cost for any of the p6 based cpus have long since been recovered

Thanks. That is one area I am always puzzled. Assuming that
Intel engineer is say 10% less smart than AMD's and that the
cost for developing K6 would be 500M and P6 would be 550M.

Since AMD has only sold about 20M(?) K6, can I attribute $25 to
each K6 sold ? Whereas in Intel's case, it would be more like $4 ?
