Mani,

re: This question was asked in the CC. K63 is not selling well because it does not
have high enough MHz. Consumer cares more about MHz than actual
performance.

K7 is different in the case that it has/will have high MHz as well as actual
performance.


True enough, but an entire Q3 will go by before enough volume on this chip makes a dent in AMD's bottom line. So other than watching AMD hemorrhage even more money in Q3 what do we have to look forward to?

Also, Intel may fix CuMine troubles by Q4 and shipping volume at the same time AMD ramps the K7.

Ah yes, another verification of the McMannis' Law, Megahertz Sells-TM McMannis
