RE: <AMD's silence> Darbes, Is it just me or did Jerry clam up so tight right after the class action shareholder lawsuits were started. It is almost like the snafu that led to those lawsuits spanked him into the realization of the dangers of such forward looking statements and I may be imagining it but I am pretty sure that I detected a marked difference, almost an about face, in Jerry's willingness to make predictions after that. To the point where AMD now seems to err on the side of excessive sandbagging. Do you get the same impression or is this all in my head Thanks, Epinephrine

DARBES, <I suspect that when "willY" comes AMD just may have some TRUMP cards.> Just like AMD trumped Intel's 1.5 GHz Willamette demo in Palm Springs, just like some people here predicted? I hold a view totally opposite of yours. I think AMD already revealed too much of its hand back in Q4 when they announced LVT, x86-64, multi-core processors, Thunderbird, Spitfire, Mustang, Sledgehammer (well, that's the same as x86-64), and a RISC-like FPU. Out of all those announcements, I'm most concerned about LVT and Thunderbird. The rest is a non-concern to me considering what I know about Intel's future plans, both announced and unannounced. There, now you can rest easy knowing that at least one person on this thread disagrees with you. ;-) Tenchusatsu
