AMD Does Well
by Maarten Goldstein, Apr 12, 2000 3:05pm PDTAMD just announced their Quarter 1 results, which are better than expected. Sales reached $1.09 billion, with earnings of $189.3 million. During the same period last year they had a loss of $128 million. During the first months of 2000 1.2 million Athlons were sold, and they only expect it to get better especially because of the release of the Thunderbird and Spitfitre processors. Quite the changing for AMD, let's hope they can keep it up to give us the good stuff. Thanks AMD Zone for the initial word.

It just goes to show if you release a better product than the competition you will likely dominate the market. Thats the reason why M$ are dominating th OS market. But thats another story....
look at the amount of people into computers / on the earth in general now, they are selling more and more and more cpu's
Actually I lie
I'm waiting for a cpu of any kind capable of 1.1ghz for under 450$
I guess I'm a tightass? maybe, shrug I dont know I just want the best bang for my buck, I paid 345$ .AU for my 300A when it came out and was VERY happy with it indeed, I see no reason why intel / amd should charge me more than this amount of money for a component which will be worth SFAll in 18 months time (remember paying 900$ for a DX-2, 66?)
And tell them to improve the Via Apollo Pro 133A chipset.
This is what I am talking about.

I won't buy an Athlon until the motherboards improve.
I want to buy an Athlon for 2 reasons.
1. Faster then an Intel chip.
2. Cheaper then an Intel chip.
