Re: "May be AMD is using the same trick which is to pile up every Athlon and wait for the Christmas season then came out with a positive earning for Q4. I believe that was what they did last year." That's what one of the faithful AMDovotes claimed last year about the K6-3. AMD was holding back the K6-3 so they wouldn't confuse the market before Christmas. For some unexplainable reason they kept holding it back way into the new year. It never hit it's stride. The AMDolts saw this as a great sign from above that AMD was ready to take over the world. Today the missing Athlon is seen as a clear sign that AMD is once again ready to take over the world. The more it's missing the more they get excited. If it never shows up at all they will be in nirvana. EP
