In order to get the corporate accounts, AMD needs to show continued technological as well as financial improvements, not higher that 1 GHz CPU.

Hello Mani,

This thread may have been too focused on speed for the last few days...indeed the market place begins to discount the importance of further speed gains in favor of business and product stability.

This is really great news for AMD, which looks to a future armed with a maturing product and increased output.

higher that 1 GHz CPU. AMD has been doing just that. I expect corporate SKU's from IBM will be announced by July 15th.


I didn't buy in to the 1.4 or 1.5ghz idea, I was just speculating on the possibility. I did think that AMD would announce 1.1 ghz Athlons and I would have liked to have seen this happen, but an announcement of corporate SKU's from IBM
would probably be more important right now.

Yes. Nice to see at least someone agrees with me here. The goal is to maximize profits, the goal is not to be ahead of INTC, as much as possible, in the MHz war.

Mani,

I wanted both, and both are very doable with AMD in a sizable MHz lead.
