"It would be mostly ASP gain, due to richer mix (more server, more highend desktop, more mobile, less Sempron). "

Anecdotal corroboration here:

Heck, one would hope that AMD could meet German retailer demand.

Q4 AMD numbers could only have been attained with a HUGE shift to A64 and Turion in the mix relative to Sempron. No reason to think that this shift won't continue. After all, if AMD can only supply 25% of the market when AMD mindshare is exploding and 30% to 50% of consumers now prefer AMD, then why not provide the higher margin higher end product?

I do believe Hans is creating a situation where he can downgrade AMD to Super Strong Sell when the top line revenue number misses. Never mind that he will be way off on the EPS number for Q1, Q2, Q3, Q4 and all of 2007.
