Here is an article from WSJ interactive posted on RB:

ragingbull.altavista.com
Meanwhile, Intel rival Advanced Micro Devices Inc. has been making the most of the chip giant's missteps. Its new Athlon microprocessor is doing well, and AMD has managed to release faster processors than Intel on several occasions.

Even more significant, AMD has dramatically boosted the average selling prices of its processors, while Intel's average prices have continued to slide. According to Mercury, AMD's average pricing rose to $103 in the second quarter from $87 in the first quarter. Intel's average prices, by contrast, dropped to $189 from $192 in the same period.


I find it interesting that their ASP matches one in my spreadsheet that I used for epscontest.com

My estimate is:

# ASP Revenue
Athlon 1.95 $240 468
K6 5.05 $53 267
Combined 7.00 $105 735

Elmer, re:<It congratulates the team on producing what averages out to well over 1 million CuMines per week for the entire Q2!>

More proof that there's a packaging/speed bin problem.

Elmer, Is that the same production group with the motto,
"We ship shit",? same as the sewage disposal company.
What speed were they on average? 400-450 and then they use that new high voltage trick of yours to reach the bottom of the celery spec?
