dale, <Without the Duron in cheap systems Q4 is going to be very tough for AMD. I would look for AMD to start dumping 800 MHz Athlons into the grey market to meet their 7.2 million units projection...>

Don't worry, Athlon production cost is not more than $10 higher than Duron, but ASP is at least $20 higher at the same MHz, so this "dumping into the grey market" will result in higher profits, not lower.

<< Q1 2001 is when AMD will slam Intel big time >>

That sounds so similar to what people have said about every quarter this year, but so far we've missed out on a critical piece every quarter.
