Scumbria,

Re:" We will never see eye to eye on this. I believe that AMD has been executing incredibly well across the board, for the past 12 months."

You are looking at everything as an engineer and more specifically a design engineer.

I agree with you on the design engineering. The k6-2, the K-3 and the K-7 have come out in a reasonably competitive way.

Management knew about the production weaknessess ala the 0.35 micron fiasco and should have planned/executed better IMHO.

Frankly if anybody had confidence that customers will be able to get 600Mhz K7's in high volume for the $400-500 range the stock price would be 2-4x what it is right now despite the current problems.

I certainly have my doubts if they have a conservative production plan in place for the K7.

I suspect they have a few runs built and expect to "learn" their way into manufacturing large die. One quarter later they will try to "learn" their way into a new "0.18 Cu" process at a brand new Dresden Fab.

Nuff said.

Kash
