Scumbria, Seems like you are turning Devils advocate (and Pauls best new buddy). I think you are looking to sell AMD. Never hurts to take a profit. On the other hand...the K6-3 is not late. It's been due at the end of Q 4 or the beginning of Q 1 99. Last I checked that was 7 weeks away. All this late stuff is a bunch of FUD. Maybe there are technical problems. Maybe AMD wants to introduce it at 450 MHz and they are having a problem with that right now. I'd rather see them sell all the K6-2s at 400 at 450Mhz rather than introduce the K6-3-450s at poor yields and high costs. I'm never really bought the hold back strategy either. But there is a plan rather than the desperation that the Intelabees want you to believe. I don't see the K6-3 as a problem right now. Maybe when January rolls around and if the K6-3 starts geting late, I'll start to worry. Right now I'm more concerned at the intro of the K6-2-400 and 450. First things first. Jim
