Looks like AMD is gettin a little cocky "We are departing from the 20 percent lower pricing structure, because we don't have anything to compare the Athlon against," says Ruller." This spokesman "for the americas" also reiterates Sanders' production goals from CNBC: Every time we bring out a new product, we learn. We had a few hiccups in manufacturing in the past." However, he says, "We are seeing a higher frequency in the lab, greater demand from partners and increased production through die shrinkage." Production deliveries of AMD's aluminum 0.18-micron process is planned for Q4. Ruller expects these factors to help AMD reach its goal of selling one million Athlon processors by Q4.
