AMD's total bookings in the third quarter were a record, with a book-to-bill ratio greater than 1:1. Current Outlook The company's outlook statements are based on current expectations. The following statements are forward-looking, and actual results could differ materially. The company's current outlook is based on the following projections for its flagship products. In the fourth quarter, the company again expects to sell out its production of AMD Athlon processors. The company expects that sales of AMD Athlon processors, AMD Duron processors, and PC processors in the aggregate will set new records, individually and collectively, in both units and dollars. For the year, the company expects that total sales of PC processors will easily exceed earlier projections of 25 million units, with the final tally projected to be approximately 28 million units, compared to last year's 18.8 million units. The company projects that sales of AMD PC processors will be between 8 and 9 million units in the fourth quarter based on a total market projected to be between 43 and 45 million units.
