Kevin,

Most importantly, it puts AMD in direct competition with 95% of Intel's desktop business. The 333 MHz PII is still a small factor in the market and this means that Intel will have even smaller margins next quarter.

AMD will ship 2.0 million units of K6 in Q2 (at least). AMD will ship more CPUs at high ASPs.

Re Re: "Big Deal!"

Alright AMD is ONE grade bin behind Intel as of this week.

On April 15(next week), several major PC makers, including IBM Personal Computer Co. (IBM) and Compaq Computer Corp. (CPQ), Dell and Hewlett-Packard., will ship Intel Corp.'s next-generation Pentium II 350MHz and 400MHz.

Intel is shipping 350 MHz and 400 MHz chips to OEMs now.
