Kevin,

Re: "I understand that Intel is upset that some of their "consultants" told
them that AMD would never make it past 300 MHz on their existing processes--can
you confirm whether or not this is true?"

No Kevin this isn't true ... In fact, Intel was very "happy" to hear early
(July '98) that AMD would have process margin problems.

Re: "... laughing at Intel ..."

Kevin, The laughing you heard was when Intel saw AMD's 1st quarter results
and found out that JimmyMac had predicted that AMD would "eek-out" a
profit. <ggg> A ($128,400,000) loss ?? ... Not a even a close call, IMHO.

Make It So,
Yousef
