Dave, The reason for the huge opposition from AMD supporters is because the benchmarks are beginning to show that RDRAM is enabling INTEL to win with its old core processor. When the new processor core Williamette makes it debut the game will be over in the performance sector of the market if AMD has not adopted Rdram. No wonder there is so much venom. Currently, AMD has no chipset to support Rdram and it takes a while to get one. So AMD is very worried about this situation. JK

RE:"When you're an investor you want to find companies that dominate their segment. That's how you make the most profit and drive the share price up. It's the employees of competitive companies and those who's livelihood is put at risk by the dominant company that want to see it fail. Well, life is like that. No one needs buggy whips anymore, so the buggy whip makers went out of business. They had to find new skills. Life is about Change. Someone wins and someone loses. In the end, having a dominant player can make the market more efficient." Where were you when Microsoft needed you? <G> Jim
