Brian, Re: "Gateway and AMD
cbs.marketwatch.com.
Notice the comment AMD is featured in 70% of the sub $1000 PCs"

Did you happen to see the last paragraph:

Nevertheless, Peck doesn't expect AMD to topple Intel's
supremacy in the corporate space. Peck recalls a recent
conversation with an unnamed chief executive of a
leading computer manufacturer, who said, "In the
consumer market, nobody cares whose processor is in
there, but in the corporate market, you still can't give
away a non-Intel based PC."

Guess I've been wasting my breath with my K7 will be stiff-armed by server manufacturers talk. Should have just waited for dear old Drew.

Hutch - "but in the corporate market, you still can't give away a non-Intel based PC. "

Thanks for pointing this out.

I believe you understand the implications of this statement.
