Maxwell, re: AMD Q3 estimates. While Merrill has forecasted $0.14 per share for Q4 and a loss of ($0.96) for the year, unless my math or data is bad, this means they're projecting -$0.26 for Q3. Q1A = ($0.39) Q2A = ($0.45) Q3E = ($0.26) Q4E = +$0.14 '98E = ($0.96) In that case, none of us participants in the contest came very close. :-( See anything wrong here? Gene

Pravin, Re: "AMD pushes the K6-2 in Taiwan: ..." Some interesting quotes from this URL --> nikkeibp.asiabiztech.com "Acer Inc. reportedly expressed interest in making PC systems based on the new K6-2 350MHz chips for the performance PC market. But earlier models by FIC and IBM hit a snag. Taipei-based First International Computer Inc. (FIC) had made some systems based on AMD K6 processors targeted at the basic PC market. IBM Taiwan also tested the waters with K6-based models. Sales were less than impressive. Taiwan end-users seemed to have strong reservations about an unfamiliar processor brand." Interesting, eh ?? Make It So, Yousef
