Joe,

<Until the launching of the mobile Mustang, the positions of AMD in the notebook market are held by a long-suffering pair: K6-2+ and K6-III+, which we have been expecting since the last year already. But now not so much waiting is left. The first mobile AMD processors with PowerNow technology (similar to SpeedStep from Intel) will come out in April. It will probably be clear then if K6-2+ can be used in Socket7 mainboards or not.>

I gather that Athlon will make it to the laptop scence before Mustang. Such a development could add a hundred Ku Athlons to Q2 and much more than that in Q3 and Q4. I am far more interested in that than the tiny amount of revenues that AMD gets from the laptop segment from K6s. Let's see if this happens.
