Adam - RE: "I saw Sanders on CNBC this morning. It's the first time I've seen or heard him - he sounds better than he looks, IMO."

I saw a clip of it on CNBC. He did look kind of tired, but remember, he is in California, so the interview could have taken place at 5AM, Jerry's time!

"Also, I've tried to find the anandtech.com review of the K7, but couldn't find it. Is it buried in the site somewhere?"

It isn't up yet.

These ones have gotten the highest ratings according to JC's page (http://www.jc-news.com/pc/AMD/Athlon_Reviews/?nocomments=1)

aceshardware.com

arstechnica.com

tomshardware.com

In the last one, it takes a LOT of clicks to get to the benchmarks.

Re <<He clearly predicted that production in Q3 would be hundreds of thousands of K7s, and cumulatively pass the 1M mark in Q4 (meaning if 200k were made in Q3, ~800k would be made in Q4)>>

Can someone confirm this. Most definitely not good :-(

Is the ramp going slower due to (I am afraid to use the "y" word here) problems. More likely motherboard and chipsets will not be able to accommodate more than a cumulative 1 million through Q4. I would really appreciate if someone could confirm those comments however.
