Petz - RE: "Scot and Jim, on retail numbers, I can't recall the exact numbers from prior months, but since the demise of Cyrix, AMD has been gaining on Intel, not the other way around." Yeah, in October, AMD's retail market share went UP. It was 33% vs. about 28% in September. The K6-2's share went up very slightly while the Athlon's share went up to 5.5%. This means that the Athlon took share away from either the Celeron (probably only 500MHz models, if any) and the PIII. I got September's numbers from Rob Herb's slide presentation given at the analyst meeting. It is still available at AMD's site. The chart shows AMD has been gaining the past month or so. This month's % was just about equal to last year's October. This month's numbers came from a News.com and ZD Net article.
