Tench Re <<next time you might want to keep the personal insults out of your replies>> You call that insult! Are you for real? Paul and Elmer harass people with obnoxious, condescending and rude posts, day after day, post after post and you have never complained or shown any concerned over it. Now when I say "You might want to take Econ 101", you are offended! Oh cry me a river! Mani

Tench, re:<Meanwhile you suggest that "if you could just stick an Athlon in a PIII slot, they would sell at even a faster rate." Are you telling me there is still a shortage of Slot A motherboards?> I can't speak for Mani, but I think AMD would have cleaned up against Intel by now if it could use the P6 bus. The rate of the Athlon ramp is, I believe, contrained by demand from the formerly "Intel-only" high end users. I doubt business demand for non-Intel processors can increase by more than 25% quarter to quarter, and I don't think there's much demand from individuals for $600 - $900 CPU's. So AMD will have to live with $200-$220 ASP average for the Athlon in Q1. Petz
