Bill, Re: "I know what I know. I suggest you ask a few people in large companies about this." Define what you say you know. You said earlier, "Even Dell has projects that try out AMD products." This is a little different than arguing strategic planning. The latter can mean all kinds of things, and obviously these major companies plan for their future. I was not trying to argue that, but rather arguing you using that fact to leverage your argument about OEMs having secret projects involving Athlons. There is a difference between participating in strategic planning (which I agree all major companies do), and spending the time, headcount, and money to build and test systems based on different configurations, just in case a part of those systems (say, the CPU, for instance) begins selling well somewhere else. That just doesn't make sense. wbmw
