Steve, I don't know about AMD, I saw this bit of news recently about them in C/net. <<<<Price cuts? They have to get product first," said Ashok Kumar, who estimated that AMD is getting only a 20 percent yield on its wafers. "For every one they shipped, they are scrapping four.">>>> The above quote is in response to a price cut announced by AMD.This article appreard, I believe, on Nov.30th or there abouts.Could they have improved the yield in the last 4-6 weeks??? I very much doubt it,at least I hope not. What can I tell'ya, I own Intel.
