news.com Excerpt: AMD to postpone IBM K6 effort By Michael Kanellos Staff Writer, CNET NEWS.COM July 20, 1998, 4:50 p.m. PT Just months after recruiting IBM to manufacture its processors, Advanced Micro Devices is putting the brakes on the deal. ...snip...

Quant, We have heard the story about "6 months in advance". In fact, many times. If you are trying to make a case for buying AMAT now, you need to come up with something more convincing and complete.
