Scumbria - Do the numbers. IF AMD had 60% of the retail market in Q3 and AMD sold 3.8 Million CPUs, the market is only 6.33 million units. This presumes - most logically - that this is the ONLY market AMD serves in. So, Cyrix has 15% of a 6.33 million CPU market - which is only 950,000 CPUs ! That is near peanuts ! The overall market in Q3 then shapes up to be: Intel - 24 Million (TOTAL) AMD - 3.8 million (TOTAL - ALL Retail) Cyrix - 0.95 million (TOTAL - ALL RETAIL) That gives Cyrix a 3.3% share of the TOTAL CPU market. No wonder you took nothing to the bank last quarter. Re: "Poor Celery. About to get passed by Cyrix " Think again (I know -- it HURTS). I wouldn't be too surprised if Intel's WEEKLY Celeron production isn't close to Cyrix's TOTAL QUARTERLY CPU production. You shouldn't be surprised either when the numbers come out in a few more months. Paul
