Just when I thought the day could not get any better. We may not succumb to profit taking tomorrow after all :) I like it, Mani

eplace Advanced Micro Devices Inc. has started shipping samples of its first copper-based X86 microprocessors Ja Wafer yields are high and stable for both Athlon processors and 4-Mbit SRAM chips based on the new process. JaJa The process is going well, and according to plan. The [technology] qualification has been completed successfully JaJaJa Sanders said AMD will introduce its Spitfire processor with on-chip cache by June, followed by its Mustang mobile processor with up to 2 Mbytes of on-chip cache I thought Mustang was supposed to be a server ship, not mobile chip. Is this correct? Joe

Wafer yields are high and stable for both Athlon processors and 4-Mbit SRAM chips based on the new process. Though AMD will not publically disclose the speed of the new Athlon until June, Sanders indicated in a presentation here that the company is seeing "excellent" speed results and has started shipping qualification chips to customers. "The process is going well, and according to plan. The [technology] qualification has been completed successfully," said Sanders at a press conference, which commemorated his company's 25 years of operation in Japan. Sanders said he expects product qualification to be completed by June.... I hope someone emailed and complained to EE times re yellow journalism. Everyone knows that: Dresden is contaminated and closed! That the Germans are lazy, incompetent and always on holiday. That the MO copper process has never worked and in fact never existed. That Dresden was originally meant to produce krispy kreme doughnuts. That Sanders does not know what a microprocessor is used for. That Thunderbird and Spitfires are really miniature cars being made for the Power Ranger market. **And that AMD will be filing bankruptcy by the end of June. GO AMD!!! ted
