<Looks like Hot Rail has already SLIPPED THEIR SCHEDULE by a few months!>

I'd say it's more than just a few months. Before, the 8-way switched-fabric chipset was supposed to "reach the market later this year." Now, it's "targeted for qualification in early 2000," which itself is several more months before reaching the market.

Paul - Re: 8-way K7 delay?

I think we can all agree that while technically interesting, the 8-way (and up) systems are not relevant to AMD's financial success or lack of same. In other words: who cares?

Paul -- Interesting, but I would still venture that a chipset will qaualify for 16 way K7 before one will qualify for 16 way P-III -- but I would doubt that that Hot rail would be the mfgr.

(It looks to me like INTC has the 8-way race in the bag.)
