Kevin, Re: "The K6 HAS been extremely successful in the marketplace ..." Earth to Kevin ... With all of AMD's losses, how can you say the K6 has been successful. Unless your objective is losing money. <ggg> Make It So, Yousef

Kevin, Re"K6's success", Perhaps you have been taken by Jerry Sander's gospel of equating success with beating Intel. Intel's falling margins have less to do with AMD (though they've been a factor with their presence) than with the lack of a "killer app" in my opinion. Perhaps you'd like to graph out AMD's microprocessor shipments over quarters and then re-evaluate your statement. I do not think shipping 1.5m a quarter in a market ~25m is a success - however the last ditch yield effort did rescue AMD from bankruptcy, Best Wishes, - MJ
