EP,

I've been trying to warn you guys but nobody would listen. The information was right there in front of your noses the whole time but you were so caught up by the euphoria of believing Intel would screw up forever that you couldn't see the forest through the trees. Yield problems, binsplit problems would last forever and AMD would have smooth sailing from now on. No worries the giant is dead. You guys set yourselves up for this so don't blame me for pointing it out.

You're absolutely right. So you guys are going to start cranking out the 1ghz cumines???? Right?

"We will enter volume production (on the 1-GHz Pentium III chips) in the third quarter this year for performance desktops and low-end servers," Yu said, holding up one of the versions of Willamette to the audience. Yu also showed coming computers from IBM, Hewlett-Packard and Dell Computer that will contain 1-GHz Pentium IIIs.

Willamette will come out more gradually. Hundreds of thousands of the chips will come out this year, with millions to follow in 2001.


Yeah, you guys are really kicking a$$! 3rd Quarter!!! Hahahaha!

No, I think that we've been telling you.......

EP, you are right...we only have ourselves to blame.

I know you tried to get us "to wake up and smell the wafers" but we wouldn't listen...now we bear the consequences.
