Ted,

<They know what Sanders said during the CC...that revenues for the year are expected to be $4.8 billion, that ASPs are not expected to change materially from Q3 to Q4, that revenues are expected to grow in the high single digits sequentially......sounds like a creditable forecast to me. >

Sanders is talking about units being up well over 10% and relatively flat ASPs but single digit revenue growth? Why does that sound credible to you?

<A five percent reduction in sales(as discussed in my original post) could seriously effect that forecast, lowering sequential percentage revenue growth as well as reducing Jerry's $4.8 projected annual revenue number for 2000. In addition, it could negatively effect estimated ESPs and overall ASPs.>

Read the above. Jerry was forecasting a minimum unit growth of about 15% with no commentary on Thunderbird/Duron/K6 splits. At flat ASPs five percent reduction units would do nothing to change the guidance.

<Should that scenario transpire, do you not think AMD would warn?....which is getting back to my original premise.>

Hope it is clear to you now why your original premise was wrong.

<LOL. What case are you talking about? >

The case that you are making and I was arguing against.

<Your case is rested, mine is not. >

I hope it is now!
