Paul, I think AMD must abandon this 25% discount price. for some funny reason the shortage has made the K6 233 more expensive than the Pentium 233 MMX in Toronto, at least. I wonder how much is getting back to AMD and how much goes to the middlemen. Compaq seems to have lots of CPUs from AMD, so I suspect they serve that contract market first. What if some industrial foolery is going on, and AMD is actually making good numbers in high yield, but misinforms the world to fool Intel. Intel is not fooled, but their inventory does pile up? How would this scenario be unfrocked?, if true at all. I have no solid basis for this. Just the true fact that K6 are at a price premium among the hacker crowd(maybe because you can still over clock them) and CPQ seems to have lots. Bill
