Paul,

AMD has not had even one PC/Server manufacturer come out and claim they will support the K7.

Why would an OEM be interested in the highest performance x86 CPU?

RE:"

You know Paul, the more I read your posts the more I agree with you.
Deep down, everyone knows that no one will sell K7 servers, the K7 will be way late and Intel and Intel investors have nothing to worry about concerning AMD. As a matter of fact, Intel doesn't even have to upgrade their chips for at least 6 months because you've laid down the law. AMD will screw up. I just don't know how I could calm Intel any better than you. Keep up the good work. Wink.
