Paul sinility? how is "Total PC processor unit sales were relatively flat compared to the second quarter of 2001" different from "remained at last quarter's record level" (original statement)? ---Except, "remained at last quarters record level", wasn't the "original statement". What sanders said was "With unit sales of our seventh-generation processors at record levels". "At record levels", is not the same thing as "remained at last quarters record level". "Our ability to maintain PC processor unit volumes under current market conditions is a strong testament to the architectural superiority of AMD Athlon(tm) and Duron(tm) processors," said W.J. Sanders III, chairman and chief executive officer. "With unit sales of our seventh-generation processors at record levels in an extremely difficult PC market, we believe we either held or gained market share. In an effort to make up for the performance deficiencies of computers based on its Pentium* 4 processors, Intel resorted to aggressive pricing and large, cash-backed marketing programs, which had the effect of driving down ASPs on PC processors in the market segments where we compete directly," Sanders concluded. realworldtech.com Semi
