Petz, I understand their is a new PII coming out for the segment zero market without cache. it's die size probably will be less than 75mm2. I don't want to get into an endless discussion on wether mfg cost will be $15 or $20 or $25 etc. The major point is that costs will be much lower with 0.25 for AMD/Intel/Cyrix and availible capacity will be 2X over 97. This will lead to a rapid descalation of CPU prices except at leading edge. The price reductions in 97 will be nothing compared to what's going to happen in 98. Best regards, Kash
