Re: "Take it for what it's worth - AMD won't be competing with Intel's XEONS let alone Cascades chips next year."

I actually disagree with this. I think AMD will enter the server market with a competitive product in very late 1999.

Re: "Now, AMD is admitting their K7 is going to have to compete with Intel's high end Desktop CPUs - Pentium II now , Katmai later and Coppermine in mid-late 1999, and the K7 will not be competitive in the workstation/server line."

This is a funny way to put it--that AMD is "admitting" they have to compete with Intel's high end. Right now I WISH they were competing with Intel's high end. So if they are actually competing with Intel's high end next year, it can only be good news for AMD.

Mr. Engel,

Now that AMD has taken a chunk of the low-end market, is going to compete head-to-head in the high end 1999, they will also have to compete with INTC in the server market?

How many desktops do you figure are there per server?

Bircky
