RE:"Yet the net volumes will still pale in comparison with Intel's volumes. And that'll disappoint those who think AMD's sole purpose of existing should be to destroy Intel at any cost."... I totally agree with you. The Idea of AMD destroying Intel are fallacious at best. AMD just needs a little bigger piece of the ever growing pie. High end/profit margin preferred. As far as net volumes. No one thinks AMD can challenge Intels volumes. Then again AMD doesn't need to. They just need to increase volume steadily on the chips with the larger profit margins...they have the opportunity. Jim PS...saw a nice Compaq Athlon mo'chine in Costco today. One K6-2 and the rest Celerons. NO P-IIIs. Hummmm
