<However, I think the market will only be able to consume about 4-5 million Athlons per quarter by the end of next year. This leaves capacity for maybe 5 million K6-III running at 600-750 Mhz in 0.18u copper.>

So four million Athlons in one quarter @ $200 ASP will lead to $0.8 billion. Tack on $0.5 billion from non-CPU sales (I think your $0.9 million figure was too high) and another $0.5 billion from the five million K6-III's @ $100 ASP. That will leave revenue of $1.8 billion. Assuming your $1.2 billion in expenses, that's a WAG of $600 million in earnings, or $3 a share.

And with a multiple of 20, the share price could go up to $60. This is perhaps the best-case scenario. Of course, everything hinges on both production volumes and ASP once again.
