TWY Re...<<<<<<Re: "Getting a "wow!" may be good PR strategy but productization based on PR factors alone is a losing game." <<<<<<< Twy, with this statement you are implying there aren't any 1.5 ghz chips. The German article stated there were. If there are 1.5 ghz chips available, even in limited quantity, I say go for it. A steady reasonable ramp doesn't apply in this case because the T-bird is a new chip on a new process from a new plant. People and analyst are expecting better than average. A 1.1 ghz will be ho-hum; sorta like beating estimates by a penny. I say go for the dollar. By the way, Amd introduced the 1 ghz in limited quantity and look at the results. The same positive results can come from a limited 1.5 ghz intro. now.
