Paul, RE:"When AMD had the FABULOUS Sharp Eye K6III at 450 MHz - faster than Intel's Pentium II - did AMD make money ?"... That's funny, I don't EVER remember the K6-III offered at a higher MHZ than a P-II... When did this occur? The K6-III never fit in. Wouldn't scale as well as the K6-2, yielded poorly in the beginning, cost too much relative to selling prices and still suffered from FPU-itis. All things corrected with the Athlon BTW....which is why you are one of the biggest AMD stockholders in these parts.<G> Jim
