Petz, re: <Using 2M as the number of CuMines, remember that very few of these are at 650, 666, 700 and 733. Since there are also mobile chips in this number, the real number of desktop CuMines may be as low as 1.5M, not much more than AMD Athlon >

My question is, will it (Intel's Cumine problem) continue into Q1'00? If it does, you may see faster ramp of K7s than the forecasted one :o)

Petz, you are really reaching here. Only two million Coppermines this quarter. Uh huh. Is there any reason why you'd want to grossly underestimate Intel like that?

John, Re: "Ottelini only promises "millions" of CuMine for quarter in an interview on CNNfn about 11:40 EST. He also didn't want
to respond to the reporters question about the "Ath-a-lon."
To me, millions = 2,000,001,..."

Isn't two million and one Coppermines still more than Athlon shipments will be, and Athlon came out more than a quarter earlier? Is this a moral victory for AMD or something?
