Under pressure by whom, Ashkok?

The report also cautions that the pricing environment for
Intel could turn malignant due to an inventory overhang
going into the December quarter.

Tactical issues which the company also faces include
the recent recall of the 1.13 GHz PIII. Kumar stated that
he doubts “the company can qualify the new
process/equipment in the time frame of relevance” and
sees gross margins under pressure as a result.

"Weak demand will cause slower-than- expected growth,
Kumar said, and oversupply could prompt a ``malignant'' pricing environment."

Comment: Yeah, it might take the day before investors realize the correct context and interpret the statement as follows:"Weak demand for PWeeIII 700 MHz and under will cause slower-than- expected growth,Kumar said, and oversupply of celerons owing to the newlt introducesd and superioir Duron could prompt a ``malignant'' pricing environment for Intel."
