Yousef, this line is from their faithful partner.

Yet, even his faith is limited. "[At this point,] we are just hoping that they get the K7 out," said Schneider.

And it is mid April.

Re: "Paul, here's another good laugh -->"

Nice editing job on that article, Youseless. Here are some other quotes:

"Another major PC maker said it had suffered no delays due to AMD's chip shortages, though it admitted that the punctuality may be due to preferential treatment.

"In all honesty, things are going quite well," said a spokesman for the major brand, speaking on condition of anonymity. "Our expectations were set realistically and they were met."...

"Be that as it may, the industry still likes AMD's K6-2, K6-III and coming K7 products.

"AMD's K6-2 has repeatedly dominated the sub-$1,000 marketplace. In addition, AMD's foray into the Intel-dominated corporate and high-end mainstream markets -- the K7 processor --
has its partners excited.

"The K-7 and the K6-III have promise to be great products," said Insite 64's Brookwood. "Assuming that the design is solid, it will be more advanced than anything Intel will have for a
year.

"For CyberMax, having dibs on the next-generation chip makes weathering the other "minor" problems well worth it. "By all measurements, it's going to take the market by storm," said
CyberMax's Schneider."
