Harry, I think this is the URL you meant to copy: zdii.com Compaq should thrive on the market's overall growth, especially now that the company has regained its top position in retail, Young said. "There's clearly evidence that Compaq is executing well," he said. The top-selling models of Compaq, Young noted, all are powered by chips from Intel (Nasdaq: INTC), which won't please the Advanced Micro Devices (NYSE: AMD) fedayeen that populate ZDNet message boards. "It's really a huge Intel bet that Compaq is making," Young said. "Getting completely behind Intel on the Celeron product and the Pentium III, rather than AMD, seems to have paid off big-time for Compaq." fedayeen, now that's a new one. Is that another word for AMDroid? Oops, a Google daffynition: These "heroes" were Arab terrorists, or fedayeen ("one who sacrifices himself"), trained and equipped by Egyptian Intelligence to engage in hostile action on the border and infiltrate Israel to commit acts of sabotage and murder. Yeah, easily could be AMDroids. Thanks for finding that article. Tony

Harry - Re: ". "Getting completely behind Intel on the Celeron product and the Pentium III, rather than AMD, seems to have paid off big-time for Compaq." I love it ! Thanks. I am a bit surprised, however - since a LOT of Compaq ATHWiper PCs have been sold at local stores + Costco. Maybe AMD just overshot the price points and tried to get too much for their chips allowing Intel to move back in at the lower price points. Whatever - it's good news for Intel. Paul
