Scumbria,

<While Nero is over here fiddling, AMD is about to demo a 650 MHz K7.>

Is this similar to the profit demo they put on in Q4? <ggg> I guess that's why they call them "demonstrations".

Scmbria, >>>While Nero is over here fiddling, AMD is about to demo a 650 MHz K7.<<<

That's funny. AMD can't even make a 350 MHz K6 and they're going to make a 650 MHz K7? I take it back, that's not funny, that's hilarious. Too bad Paul already used up today's quota of Ha's! None left.

The manufacturing problems occurred with the middle range of the K6 family of
microprocessors. AMD said it was getting shippable 300 and 400 megahertz parts, but it was
having difficulties making 350 megahertz chips.


>>>Enjoy every scrap of bad news you can get out of AMD.<<<

If I were an engineer, or any kind of an employee at AMD, can you give me one good reason to not be shopping myself around the valley big-time serious? Hide the women and children, here comes the stampede for the door.

I'll believe it when I see it (in the stores, of course).

Speaking of fiddling, isn't AMD fiddling to the same old tune of "We're taking losses now, but just wait til next quarter"?

That ought to be good for a $5 run up in the stock tomorrow, don't you think?

While Nero is over here fiddling, AMD is about to demo a 650 MHz K7.

Is this a "specially cooled" CPU demonstration like Intel's demo of the 1.02 GHz P-III a couple of weeks ago? Big whoop.
