<<Gary, I see CPQ getting into $600 Celerys within the next two weeks. BTW, I also see AMD getting into the corporate sector. Now that the people who work at the cos. have an AMD box at home, it is a much easier sell. Also, if E-Machines can ever make enough boxes to satisfy retail demand, they will be monsters in the commercial market.>>

Agreed on CPQ entrance, although I don't know timetable and 2 wks might be aggressive (but then, my estimated timetable so far has been greatly compressed).

AMD thesis plausible, but production a question mark.

EMachines: absolutely. Did you read the BW interview with Drukker? Some utility wants 20,000 units to give away to customers. IPO coming . . . funds for expansion coming.

Mike,

Is the AMD machine any good?
What if they go broke?
