<I don't see how Intel competes against K7.>

As if K7 is a sure thing for AMD. Didn't you remember all the ways that Intel was going to respond to the K7 until Merced and Willamette are released? And yes, Intel will do more than just pray for a tornado to strike the AMD rented White House.

The way I see it, AMD will have a nice window of opportunity to exploit. Then again, I remember a certain 3DNow! with a nine-month lead, and how AMD fumbled that opportunity away now that the Pentium III is out in full force.

Aren't you worried that the demo was only at 600 MHz?

If AMD are planning to ship product within the next three months then presumably they have produced working samples of the core that is going into production? If so, wouldn't you expect them to hand select one of these samples that performs ABOVE the target spec for mass yield of a production run?
