TG, the new spread is also in the newest Forbes (October 9th) on pages 30/31. How effective do you think these Forbes/Fortune campaigns are? I'm happy to see it, but it's pretty narrow. My wife told me she's seen them in the trade techs also. They seem to be targeting everybody from the CXOs to the screwdriver guys. To build a brand, they really need television. A dedicated effort to CNBC/MSNBC/Bloomberg/etc. My guess is they're waiting until 4th quarter when Athlon production is over 8 million units. I hope you all are working advertising into your eps estimates. AMD probably spent about $500K per month in the quarter. Gotta run, another drizzly golf day in SF. Dave
