TG,

The way AMD does its roadmaps, it looks like T-Bred was supposed to be available for all of Q1:

They ought to get with the program and show a little more precision on expected cut-in. Don't you think that, back in December, AMD was envisioning an earlier release than end of March? Two more days.

<font color=darkred>[From TMF]SUNNYVALE, CA -- March 27, 2002 --AMD (NYSE: AMD) today announced the introduction of it's brand new Quantidate technology based upon customer and investor demand.

The Quantidate architecture is designed to convince customers and investors that any given product is launched 'on time'. It works by AMD announcing a quarterly date for a product launch, waiting until the absolute last minute possible to actually release it, and collecting token revenue in the said quarter. In the following quarter, many months later, the product will actually become available in quantity for true revenue and income (TRI). Quantidate is part of AMD's larger true revenue and income program.

“We felt that AMD would be served best by going back to all the production problems and delays of the K5 and K6 days,” said Jerry Sanders, Chairman and CEO of AMD.

“Along with confusing and misleading investors, we can make our best customers cry as they try to figure out when they will actually get new products to introduce,” Sanders said.

“AMD's doing a fantastic job,” said Michael Dell, CEO of Dell. “They have actually managed to find a way to benefit this company without us having to purchase any actual chips from them.”
