Re: "Intel on the other hand is fixated on blowing AMD up with the handicapped celerons. They are selling 450Mhz chips locked to 300 and 333 at lower prices in a vain attempt to kill of AMD. Their whole plan frankly is DUMB."

Kash, I think the problem is that Intel doesn't have enough slow parts to meet the demand. This is not a sinister plot but a generous act by Intel to meet the customers needs. The Celerons are not handicapped, in fact they are remarkable chips. It is the way of the future. Some day AMD will be able to integrate large L2 onto their die also. Not yet though because clearly they do not yet have confidence in their ability to produce large die.

Kash-No-Data - Re: "They have capacity for 60K wafers per
month or 7M+ CPU's."

Where did you come up with this 60,000 wafers per month crap?

You are resorting to making up data , now, eh Kash ?

Your made-up data stinks.
