Re:"You are in serious denial."

This from the person who wrote endless "June is coming" posts last May.

Seriously, the K7 will certainly get serious sales when it does appear in volume (along with chip sets and MBs). The speed bin issue in the beginning is important to AMD's inevitable need to borrow money at reasonable rates. There does seem to be a slight disconnect between Sander's statements and the facts on the ground. Nothing unusual there. AMD stock seems positively immune to any bad news from AMD so the downside is probably minimal (unless the news is REAL bad and we know that can't happen).

Regards,
Burt

Another article on just why the Athlon smokes the P-III, clock for clock. I guess this is a foregone conclusion now.

K7s removed from Pricewatch. K6-3 500s STILL not in yet. K6-3 400/450s still in limited supply....Turning into another bang-up Q3 for AMD! AMD still hasn't proven they can produce in substantial volume anything at 500+ Mhz. TOO BAD since Celeron 500 and PIII 600 is just around the corner.

Re: "no K7 in sight..... You are in serious denial."

I'm in denial?? Show me an available K7 system and I will withdraw my statement. If you can't then I think there is serious confusion as to who it is that's in denial.
