Negotiated price I would surmise.

More good news, inspired by the Gateway issue:

Note what Mike Magee got out of an AMD marketing director:

Richard Baker, North European marketing director at AMD, said: "There are no problems with any AMD
production, be it Athlons past, present or any other product for that matter.
Gateway has been selling 'classic' Athlon 1Ghz systems for a while now (as you remember they were a launch partner) so it doesn't really surprise me that they may be continuing to do so."


That's a pretty strong statement, especially coming on the last business day of the quarter. He's saying publicly that there are no production problems with anything AMD is making. I see this as a virtual guarantee of numbers made for Q2-- not that there was much doubt before, but still. If there actually was some sort of production problem, that statement would open AMD up to shareholder lawsuits, no?

Comments?
