ted - Re: Gamers clearly like the K7 and its speed. Do you know what is the size of this portion of the chip business? Would sales to this group be equal to say 20% of total PC chips sales? The demographics may not exist or be broken down into this kind of detail but I thought I would ask anyway.

I don't know whether these numbers are available directly, but one could make a solid estimate by looking at the number of high-end 3D cards shipping. (Sorry, I don't have those numbers either - but they certainly are publicly available).

I also have no idea what the numbers are, but it sure as h*ll ain't 20%.

I would guess well less than 5%.
