RE <<<That rumor is very strong. Such does not make it so, it is very hard to prove, if true; but, a lot of people seem to believe it.>>> Intel ranks right up there with microsoft in terms of being accused of heavy handed business dealings. Even people in the media bash intc all the time. Normally I would consider the rumors suspect but I figure with intc there are so many, there must be truth to them. ted

DRBES, re:<<<One site BZBOYZ.com is only offering the AMD ATHLON at 550, 600, and 650MHz. No ATHLON 500 cheapo MHz parts featured on their website...This does argue for the possibility of the higher speed bin distribution that I referred to in an earlier post.>> I consider myself totally responsible for the better than expected speed distribution by AMD, since I bought a K6-3-400 only three months ago -- this, of course, guaranteed that Athlon 550's would be plentiful in just a few months.
