RE <<<Again, public companies do not comment on any rumors whether true or not. If they did, how could they ever keep anything a secret.>>

Mani, normally I would agree with you especially if its a rumor like who is to be the next ceo. But this to me is different....its not just a rumor but an actual memo (fake or not) on GTW stationery re a potential product line.

It seems it may have the potential to cause some confusion among its customers and possibly delay sales (i.e. putting off a buy until the Athlon pc shows up) and no company wants that.

I am not sure about any of this, of course, since I have never seen a rumor laid out this way. I guess we will have to see how this plays out.
