Jim - RE: "Gateway to sell through "in stores" with in OFFICE MAX...
That ought to sell a few more Athlons eh?"

Nah, FLOPPERMINES are going to flood the market soon and they will take over the WORLD!!!

So you say you were printing out your own paper launch of processors the other day? How much is Intel paying you per piece? Those 1GHz versions must be worth a LOT. ;)

That OM deal may not be best for AMD because Gateway doesn't use AMD chips in notebooks and AMD has a very significant chunk of notebook retail market. Maybe Spitfire can fit in some notebooks. That link yesterday said it will run at 1.5 volts vs. Thunderbird's 1.7 volts so it may be possible.
