<Will relying on AMD screw ups work forever?>

Usually when your competitor is working on a very aggressive roadmap, screw-ups are to be expected. And by any measure, AMD's roadmap is very aggressive.

I don't know why people on this board think that Intel is still in a "wishful thinking" mode. Intel themselves is ramping up faster than normal, including the transition from Pentium II to Pentium III and the transition to 0.18 micron technology. Yes, the accelerated price cuts are due to AMD's successes. But the accelerated price cuts are also there because Intel is able to cut prices so fast and still maintain course on profits. (Otherwise, Intel would have warned already, citing "competitive pressures.")
