Wally,

<..and from the Intel front...:
dailynews.yahoo.com;

Thanks for posting this very good peice of news for AMD longs. I wouldn't have thought Intel would come through so well to help us.
With enemies like this who needs friends ;-)

Just yesterday, I posted my concerns about AMD's weakening position (short-term) in the laptop race. Now, AMD has a good shot at getting some nice design wins with 180nm K6-3s in this area.

The key paragraph for me from the post is:
"The delay dismays PC makers, who worry that product introductions late in the year will fall on deaf ears in the corporate market. Corporations, finalizing Year 2000 preparations, now will be unlikely to qualify systems with the new chip until after the new year."

Boy, how things have changed in a year! Now, Intel is steadily gaining the reputation of a bumbling company that has a problem getting anything straight!
