Yousef and Paul:

IBM has announced a 266 MHz K6 which is being fabbed on AMD's .25 um process. Could these chips be directly placed into a notebook, or does AMD need to go through another redesign?

AMD is supposed to produce < 2 Million K6's this quarter on .35 um. In your expert opinions, how many K6's on .25 um do you think AMD will be able to Fab in 1Q 98? Are there going to be any additional expenses for AMD?

Thanks for the info,

dave

I agree ... AMD has been a relatively poor investment the past year. The rule with AMD is to buy on yield problems (K5 or K6) and then sell on HYPE'd new products (K6, K6 3D or K6 3D+XYZ). This strategy nets many times the invested money ... It is probably a good time to buy NOW!!
Make It So,

Yousef,

Just curious, but are you seriuos about AMD being a good buy NOW?
