Goutama, Re: " ... Athlon K7 but won't really be able to ramp up supply of these until its Fab 30, in Dresden, comes onstream ..." Too bad the ATHWipes are "supply limited" (??) and Dresden will be 6 months late due to Copper problems. This is NOT good, IMHO. Make It So, Yousef

Goutama - RE: "I doubt this report. I didn't notice any price increases of K6-3 400 ($73) at Pricewatch. Any price increases in the coming few days would validate this report." Even if it is true, it is too little too late. If it is $73 at Pricewatch, and it did sell out, AMD isn't making much off it. It is at least 40% larger than the K6-2 and sells at the same price as the K6-2 475. I would guess AMD lowered prices to get rid of what they had in stock. It's only 400MHz after all.
