Oh my! More delays by AMD. Imagine how much money they will lose now! Read this message from the Yahoo thread. ____________________________________________________________________ "Has anyone else noticed the delay in the availability of AMD K6 Caps? AMD has a "Cool Stuff" link for ordering AMD Logo items: mugs, caps, etc.. mm-productions.com I first started watching the page for the cap back in October: mm-productions.com Back in October it said available in November 1998. Then they changed it to available in December 1998. Then they changed it to available in January 1999. Then they changed it to available in February 1999. Today is the last day of February and it still says available in February 1999! I suppose next it will be March, April, ... Any idea much expected Q1 loss is due to lost revenue from caps?? Any idea how this is effecting Mug revenue from people waiting to order both Mug & Cap at the same time to save on shipping? Any idea how we are going to unload an inventory of K6 hats after K7 comes out? And will the storage required for all these K6 Caps delay the release of K7 Caps?? I can only hope chips are easier to make than Caps :) I'm long AMD and love my K6. Just wish I had a hat to go with it. (My first post to any stock group)" messages.yahoo.com@m2.yahoo.com _____________________________________________________________________ This funny fellow followed up his facetious first with this - _____________________________________________________________________ Just noticed AMD even sell mugs for 25% less than Intel. * AMD Cool Mug $5.95 (12 oz) * Intel Mug #4004 $8.00 (11 oz) And AMD gives you an extra ounce of capacity! Now if we could just use Dresden to solve our K6 Cap production problem. messages.yahoo.com@m2.yahoo.com ______________________________________________________________________
