DARBES - < It is going to be pretty interesting in a few weeks when Jerry Sanders is a superhero and Craig Barrett is in the doghouse.>

I've been watching your posts all day, and now you are getting totally ridiculous, IMHO.

1) Do you see AMD making a profit this quarter? Profits makes a CEO a hero to investors, not fighting the big bad evil empire and saying at the end of the day, "Oh well, we're fighting a good fight".

2) I have yet to hear of ONE tier one PC maker announce a K7 system is coming. not saying their won't be.

3) Barrett and his company will make ~$2B +- a few bucks even with a worst case scenario. You and Scumbria have lost your minds if you think Sanders is going to be a hero in Q2.

You might consider getting a grip on reality.

re: "It is going to be pretty interesting in a few weeks when Jerry Sanders is a super-hero and Craig Barrett is in the doghouse."

Interesting prospect, and not completely outside the realm of possibility, but do not count on it; "the fat lady has not sung just yet", but we can hope.

Keep your fingers crossed, some of this is up to luck, which in the past seems to have always gone against AMD.
