Re: "It also means that future versions of directx and farenheight will be optimized first and foremost for Athlon, and THEN for Intel's chips.. have a nice day." Yes, optimized for Athlon generally, and 3DNow! specifically. AMD has excess fab capacity in Fab 30 as we're all aware. Is it better to make a $5-10 margin and use the fab space, or make no margin and leave the fab space empty? AMD needs to kiss Microsoft's *ss, because Microsoft literally has the power to make or break AMD. Kevin
