Kash, <re:"willamette" So are you saying that first silicon does run at > 1Ghz??? > Affirmative! Looks like there were a few problems very early getting up the frequency but now folks at Intel seems to have gotten it to above 1G comfortably. The competition for AMD is getting a little bit more real ;-) <I am not surprised BTW.> Neither am I. Q4 should be very interesting if Intel can pull off a volume launch. <I am also intrigued by Timna. RDRAM prices are still not coming down.> Looks to me like there is still plenty of time for Intel to get things lined up. Now, back in the AMD land, it appears to me that K6s are sold out, Athlon 600 supply is tight and the K6-2+s are on the way. (can someone confirm) I am wondering when some of the analyst folks realize AMD's earnings for this Q are going to make a mockery out of their earnings estimates. Chuck
