<font color=brown>Other analysts had a more positive outlook for AMD, however,
predicting solid demand and that supply issues would be a
short-term problem that would self-correct. Company executives
noted in a conference call it would be "hard-pressed to meet
demand."
"Management claims the microprocessor shipment unit is going
to be constrained by chipset availability from its partners,"
Needham & Co. Inc. analyst Dan Scovel said. "We're not convinced
it will be as bad as they say
, and even if it is, if fixes itself
in the next quarter."

Scovel cut estimates for the fourth quarter, but maintained a
strong buy rating on AMD
. He noted that the stock's price has
already fallen in recent weeks by association with earnings
warnings by other chipmakers.
In the microprocessor market, AMD is a chief competitor with
Intel Corp. , which warned last month that third-quarter
revenue would fall below forecasts because of weak demand for its
microprocessors in Europe.

cirruslvr,

re: < I'm still a little iffy about the deep price cuts, but we'll find out in a month how things are going >

I expect to see some desktop Athlon SKUs from Sony.

Another thing that came to my mind was that AMD's price cuts were so deep, Intel may have to change their Q4'00 guidance, and outlook hastily for the CC next Monday( or Tuesday?).
