jjayxxxx,

Once again proving that not all news posted on this thread indicates blue sky and clear sailing for AMD.

Did you notice how Dean managed to make his point without any personal attacks or one single fecal matter
refrence? Kind of makes you take him seriously.

Peter_Luc- Unfortunately, there are a lot of bad news for AMD in the article

I agree that the overall outlook is not great at this moment. However there are some postivie notes, for example:

On the desktop, Athlon/Duron seems to be the popular choice, though P4 has reportedly begun to pick up some steam. All indications point to the PIII as the processor that is getting affected by P4 sales, rather than Athlon. The current P4 implementation (Willamette/Socket 423) is scheduled to top out at 2GHz later this year, however there seems to be a chance that Intel may leave 2GHz for Northwood (Socket 478). Until Northwood appears, Athlon/Duron will probably still have the momentum in this market. However, there is no doubt that Intel is pushing P4 with all their might. realworldtech.com

That is from the processor section, which somewhat contradicts what was stated in the PCB section.

Dean doesn't mention that Toolie won't be ready for back to school, and the availability may be limited for Christmas as well. Even if the hammers never make it in the commercial server space, AMD can still do just fine, IMHO.
