re: The agreement will somewhat augment AMD's capacity from Fab 25 in Austin, Texas, for the production of AMD-K6(tm) microprocessors. AMD said that wafer starts at IBM are planned to commence during the third quarter of 1998. What does 'somewhat augment' mean? Its clear neither AMD nor IBM has a clue what's going to happen...I'm out after seeing the heavy selling after this news release. Market was expecting something much better. Well, we'll get to see how much money AMD loses this quarter in a couple of weeks. joey
