AMD introduces budget Athlon 64

But, the chips were originally rejected: Basically, they are reselling their scrap. Economically a good marketing ploy if you ask me. Better to lose some money on the chip than to scrap the entire thing. I am pretty sure that's the logic of the equation.

Manufacturing costs still matter, but the solution is a reduction in scrap. I wish the manufactured product that my company sells could be repacked and sold for less.; Posted by: nucrash Posted on: 12/19/03 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
