Herb, A year ago AMD just barely got by what they termed as Intel’s scorched earth policy. Why would they want to instigate a new preemptive strike price war when they lost the last one? Steep price cuts on that basis make no sense to me and Elmer believes that AMD is having yield problems to boot. Hey, it’ll all come out in the wash Last year's price war was over $50 parts, and Intel had a comfortable lead in MHz. This year the price war is at the $200-$500 price range, and AMD has the (much) faster parts. I suspect that Jerry is feeling quite comfortable. I am somewhat surprised that Jerry forgot to consult Elmer on this issue. Scumbria
