Re: "Either you [OEMs] get these CPUs at heavily discounted prices and sell them in corporate market, or I will sell the CPUs to anybody at those same heavily discounted prices."

I received the impression that AMD had the rug jerked out from under them last month. Intel could get away with that a year ago, but, while AMD doesn't have any MIRV's yet, their single processor warheads are plenty effective.

And Jerry has just pushed the button.

Jozef, Re: The downbinning was crazy. The only one benefiting from AMD's downbinning was Intel.

Right on!!! Additionaly some max performance "gamer" overclockers were carried along but they aren't as dangerous as the true benifactor. Thanks for pointing this out.

Kindest regards,
