Paul Engel, re: <AMD delays K7 until LATE 1999> Where in the article does it say that? All I found was, "AMD said it will port its upcoming K7 processor to a 0.18-micron process and aluminum interconnects in the fourth quarter 1999,... " Do you know that they aren't coming out at 0.25 micron?

Good luck. AMD, as we know it, wont be around that long! joey
