Ali, <If so, what is the value of your "analysis" here? > Since marketing strategy and determining what is and isn't a good investment seems to be above your head, I wouldn't expect my analysis to help you at all. <I'm sure even within AMD there are design engineers blaming manufacturing/process engineers..> Don't be so sure. This just stresses that you have no clue about the AMD situation. I'm sure you have all the clues. <<The inventory AMD is sitting on is already getting dusty> I am confused here:) Are these chips non-functional or what? > I'm sure they function just fine, the just have much demand....that's why they are inventory instead of in PC's. <Let's see what kind of manufacturing/yield problems materialize with the K7.> And your point is? My point is that it is very likely (not a certainty) that K7 will experience major manufacturing problems like all the prior K's. FF
