Think they could be using Athlon MP’s for the presentation? All I could find on Robertson Stephens web site is the following press release. Note the only connected party to AMD that is mentioned is Atiq Raza. Maybe they could ask him why Jerry waited so late to change Q2 guidance.(VBG) Robertson Stephens Hosts Semiconductor Conference -More than 100 Company Management Presentations - - Workshops and Panel Discussions by Robertson Stephens Senior Analysts - San Francisco, July 25, 2001 – Robertson Stephens today opened its Semiconductor Conference, the last in a series of three technology investor conferences hosted this week in San Francisco.
