I think it had more do to with Gateway taking a step back in December, as they were planning to release Athlon's in DEC as reported by MaxPC, but delayed (Wonder Why? Some Promise they must have been told.)

I think AMD is still in the driver seat to control there own destiny in 2000.

Re: AMD made more Athlons then they sold in a market where Intel was unable to meet the PC Market demand...

New chip, new motherboard, new chipset, few OEMs. Much of that has already changed, the rest is changing as we speak.

Do you think there would have been unsold Athlons if Gateway and HP had come on board in September?

It's a brand new day....
