RE:Well, if yields ARE GOOD and AMD can't ship more than 1 or 1.5 million chips last quarter and this quarter, that would indicate that they don't have enough orders for their K6 chip. I think yields still suck and someone forgot to tell Jochen about it. Bob

Paul, <Well, if yields ARE GOOD and AMD can't ship more than 1 or 1.5 million chips last quarter and this quarter, that would indicate that they don't have enough orders for their K6 chip. You would reach the same conclusion, would you not?> No, I would not. This just means that the total order for large OEM is currently in the range of 1M/Q. The second/third tier market for K6 is virtually bottomless, so your personal worry is largerly groundless. Relax, "Don't worry, be happy" Ali
