Even Bigger Losses,
Re - have fixed their yield issues on the 233..

If you read my posts, you will note that I have mentioned that in order to do that, they have tweaked their process so that its now a poor .35u process. Furthermore, unless you are privy to inside information, it is not at all clear that it is indeed the case. The earnings CC will tell all.

Re -- K6-300 and K6-3D around the corner

Boy, you need to learn a lot more. Lehman (who is very positive on AMD) mentioned that AMD has slipped by 3 months their .25u. Thus these are a few months away, not around the corner.

See ya IDIOT. AMD's stock price says it all.

Profits - Re: "because they have fixed their yield issues on the 233, just like I told you 2 months ago!"

From AMD's web site, it would appear that AMD jacked up the supply voltage to 3.3 volts in order to get more parts to run at 233 MHz.

This seems to be the only visible evidence of how they "increased" their yields.
