Elmer - Re: "1. The K6-3 is bug ridden and AMD still can't get it right. " I think this must be the MAJOR problem. Even with low yields, they could still ship a few parts and fib to the world that demand greatly exceeds supply. If you'll recall, Cherry Sanders told the analysts in July (Q2 conference call) that the Sharpy chip was running in the labs. I think he meant it was "running the engineers up the wall" trying to debug the chip. Think about it - the Wunderbar Sharpy Chip (K6-3) is DELAYED LONGER THAN INTEL's MERCED ! Paul
