<One interpretation is that AMD has been producing MORE (maybe much more) than the 5 millions they publicly forcasted for Q2. Thus, the the pressing need to unload K6-2s at whatever price they can get.>

Like I said, it's telling us something about demand for the K6-2. If demand for K6-2 were higher, AMD need not drop the price to move product. Seems to me that supply is increasing but demand isn't.

What does this tell us? Not much, except that the K6-2 production problems are being solved a little too late. At least now AMD can focus on a higher mix of K6-IIIs and maybe even K7s.

YX,
One interpretation is
that AMD has been producing MORE (maybe much more) than the 5
millions they publicly forcasted for Q2. Thus, the the pressing need to
unload K6-2s at whatever price they can get. "...

You KNOW that is a good interpretation.
