Hutch - re: " The initial target market for the K7 will be high-performance desktop PCs, and the later
versions could find their way into the server and
workstation segment, said Steele, "

Well, well, well...the mighty K7...

One day after its "disclosure" as the world's Meanest BAD ASS CPU (credit Maxwell or Kash-poor), the K7 is now targeted at the PC DESKTOP.

Sheeeshhh.

AMD is back peddling already.

THEY JUST ADMITTED THEY WILL NEED A NEW K7 DESIGN ("later versions") to go after the server or workstation market.

AMD is losing CREDIBILITY !

K7 = K5
