Paul,
RE: "Sure they are.

That's good business sense !

Buy the wafers, process the wafers, assemble them, test them
and put them in inventory - SPEND EVERY DOLLAR YOU CAN and
PUT THEM WHERE THEY DO NOT GENERATE REVENUE.

AND THEY DECREASE IN VALUE WITH EVERY PASSING DAY!

I take it this is more Pure Baloney from the AMD Private Thread!"

This is where I have to laugh. Why do you think everything comes from the private thread?
Otherwise, your point is valid. Now, how many K6-2-350s do you think they need for a release of this speed grade. I was assuming that was the intention but they could just be selling them as 333s until they get the yields up on them. The key, Paul, is that they are yielding 350+ parts and just recently the yields have jumped considerably on this speed bin. Sorry, but I won't give you the exact yield number but it is "good".
best regards, Jim
