Jimmy,
Re -- Are you saying Compaq will drop AMD K6 for Celeron?

Use your common sense man. Or is that too much. Perhaps you deserve the ridicule you get. Perhaps you have lost your faculties, and are wandering in the world of SI.

How's your AMD and NSM and CPQ investments doing. Remind me of what you intend to be in next, so I can stay away from them.

Will Compaq sell two systems into the same market at the same price points?
Even if they decided to sell K6's. AMD has still lost compaq for some low end ( which until now CPQ used AMD exclusively) PC's.

I'm sure Intel just told Compaq: "Make a Celeron box or you're low priority for PII shipments."

Stuff like this is why we see articles like that in the WSJ today about Intel's antitrust violations.
