Yousef,
I didn't start to get involved with AMD stock to any significant extent until June 1998.
When AMD introduces the 400 how many grades will it be that "somebody" said they couldn't produce?
300, 333, 350, 380, 400. That's 5 by my count and will be 6 when the 450 is introduced. Then there will be the K6-3...which is waiting in the wings until the 450MHz yields are up...How does K6-3-350, K6-3-400 and K6-3-450 sound? And a K6-3-450 easily beats a Pentium II 500?
Maybe the quandry now is how to market the K6-3... here comes the PR rating again?
Jim

Yousef,

Remember the old saying ... "AMD Happens".

AMD appears to be a very different company from the one that was doing a clean room copy of Intel microcode a few years back. The purchase of Nexgen was a major turning point.

I see little reason to expect the future behavior of the stock to mimic past behavior.
