Herb,

<Has anyone around here checked IBM lately. Athlon pickins are sparse! What happened to all the IBM Athlons?

Take a look. Not good for AMDers.

Can you check IBM's wb site in about a week or so (after the 10th ) and let's know what you find?

Chuck

Looking at your past posts at SI it seems clear you don't post often, but when you do, you post to this thread and attempt to put out a negative on AMD.

IBM is getting out of retail and going direct only. They are probably in the middle of revamping their home aimed PC line. If the new product line doesn't have Athlons you can continue spew what you usually do on this thread. Otherwise, keep looking for the bad news to post. It's a good thing you don't post often. ;)
