Paul, the K6-3 400 and K6-3 450 CPUs, are still missing in action I thought that Gateway was witholding their K6-3 box because they wanted to make sure it was aged properly. "We will sell no K6-3 before it's time" Did Cybermax sell out their dozen systems yet? Scumbria

Paul, We're looking forward to the K7, hopefully we'll be able to report on its progress towards the end of this week, as we've got sources at two different tier-1 OEMs that just received their first "technology demonstration examples" of the K7 complete with a functional mainboard. I'm going to take a wild guess that these boards include both a K7 microprocessor and a K7 chipset. I'm sticking my neck out here. Scumbria

Readers anxiously awaiting the AMD K7 500 should see the poor volume levels of the K6-3 as a warning sign as to when the new mega-CPU will actually hit the market. Sharky Extreme believes that a date of late July 99 is accurate at this point, with high volume occurring in late August or September at the earliest. We're looking forward to the K7, hopefully we'll be able to report on its progress towards the end of this week, as we've got sources at two different tier-1 OEMs that just received their first "technology demonstration examples" of the K7 complete with a functional mainboard. " Just now received their first "Technology Demonstration examples"???? Jim told us the K7 was just about ready for production last year!!! And now all they have is "technology demonstration examples"??? EP

re: "SCUMbria" pAUL, I just looked at this and your previous post. This kind of ridiculing people's names went out with early low class grade school. It is stupid, bush league, low grade, and an obvious attempt to take out your frustrations with your investments on this thread. There is no room for this kind of nonsense here. Please grow up. We all get frustrated when things go wrong, but your behavior may belie some profound mental problems. Your may need some professional help, do not be ashamed to admit and to get it. You may need medication to adjust your moods. Regardless, good luck in trying to achieve some happiness. If anyone else on this thread (other than pAUL) feels as I do or to the contrrary, PLEASE comment. DARBES
