bill, I have spoken to several in the know at AMD who are confident in the companies ability to make the K^-6@.25u CMOS. Some have read Yousef's comments and have discounted them as comming from an uninformed deminished capacity of AMD's knowledge of process technology.

Bill,

Re: "It sounds like a real race that depends critically on the .25 line ..."

Yes, I agree and Intel is already in the lead with the .25um Tillamook.
Can AMD catch Intel from behind??... Bill, what has been AMD's history of
catching Intel from behind?

Make It So,
Yousef

of AMDs success.
Lets hope they, make it so

AMD still claims that they will be 100% converted to .25m process by the end of 2Q98. Apparently, judging by AMD stock price movements, noone is believing Jerry this time...

I don't know what is a more unlikely outcome: the above claim or Brian's prediction that AMD stock price will be selling higher that Intel's stock price sometime im 1998. <gg> (no offense Brian).
