New Executive Update : Comment 41 of 64 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Richie on 25-Nov-2000 23:00 GMT | In reply to Comment 38 (Don Cox): Exactly, one customer is responisble for 19% of sales, 99% of
all CPU sales. The board members of motorola are certainly
looking at Apple sales figures on a monthly basis. Then
asking the questions, how much are development costs and
what is the profit we made on the product last year.
When Apple sales soften, motorola board members get
nervous. History indicates that motorola has bailed on
microprocessor support before. Ironically, a 100mhz 68k
chip will be available soon. Emulated on x86 architecture.
Sure would be nice to buy a 300mhz 68k accelerator board for
the amiga, but MOTO dropped it. I wouldn't cast the amiga's
fate with that company. I surely would not buy a computer
with that company's chip again. Not very many people would. |
