Bingo. AMD wouldn't have to discount chips the way they've had to this year. They did an AWESOME job, but to continue and to move forward, they need to increase general awareness and general perception.

Mike,

It would buy higher ASPs. Wouldn't you rather sell out at an ASP of $200?

Maybe in Q3, when we are closer to all Athlon (Spitfire, Thunderbird) mix, some increase in advertising budget would be a good idea. We still have 2 or 3 times as many K6s as Athlons for this quarter. K6 line will never have ASP higher than $100.
