RE:"I will admit that I thought they would make closer to 5Mu than 4Mu but I have apologized to the thread about suggesting to the thread that they would make 5Mu."... Hummm...I think someone said AMD would make closer to 6M chips in Q2... it's the 2.3M left over that may be the problemo. Jim

Chuckles - Re: "If you look at this thread, you will see that I have never posted a rumor about AMD being sold out for the quarter " Excellent Clintonian tap dance - you are CORRECT - but you didn't include your PRIVATE MAIL RUMORS which emphatically stated that AMD was SOLD OUT ! Re: "! You have excited the thread with a rumor about IBM taking ownership stake in AMD and never had the guts to admit that you were wrong. " I admitted I was wrong on this one - and I'm doing it again. Re: "Or the other times you were generating FUD about K7 power dissipation " I stand by my prior statements - AMD's athLATE will dissipate close to 60 watts at 600 MHz. If you have an AMD K7 data sheet that proves me wrong, POST IT ! Re: "I know some rumors don't come true but if I say something, rest assured my money is backing my mouth." Yep - and your MOUTH and your WALLET are $14/share under water - with your $58-$59 sale and then SHORT sale of Intel ! Superb investing, Chuckles - and your AMD is is doing GREAT as well - it's floundering at $17 ! Paul

Chuck - Re: Or the other times you were generating FUD about K7 power dissipation That's a really bad example. It seems Paul was pretty much right on with his estimate of 60W at 600MHz. GlobalWin (maker of cooling equipment) has a page up that lists the heat dissipation for the K7 (as well as the P3 and the Celery): globalwin.com.tw 50W at 600MHz according to this. That's 50% more than a PIII running 600MHz! A good thing during the winter months, but what am I to do in the summer? --fyodor
