CPU biz enthusiasts,

Dan Niles has come up with a research note that highlights some info that could be of
interest to this thread:

- AMD is yielding K7 over 600MHz and most of the K6s over 400
- K7 launch set for late June
- Cyrix is dumping product in the market (clerence sale)
- AMD sitting on 1 Mu inventory
- Intel dropping ASPs to ensure AMD does not get the sockets it lost during
manufacturing problems last week (turning out to be expensive for Intel)
- Celeron OEM prices significantly below list
- Intel market segmentation breaking down fast (i.e. more Celerons in business and
consequently lower ASPs)
- Intel 0.25 ramp fantastic and cost reduction well above plan and possibly 2Q ahead of
AMD
- Intel expected to do another price cut in June to counter K7

Suggests people run out of the PC CPU and OEM market segment on good news -
such as good results from DELL and HP.

What do you guys think?
