Elmer - The StInquirer claims that AMD will continue AMD's guerilla marketing - announcing an AthyWiper 200+ at MIDNIGHT the day of Intel's Northwood announcement (AMD always releases their product crap at midnight !) Guess what - the 2000+ will only be a 1662 MHz AthWiper !! AMD is desperate - and the Wipers have run out of shinola ! 213.219.40.69 AMD to launch 2000+ January It wants to spoil Intel's party By Mike Magee, 11/12/2001 10:00:37 BST INTEL IS SET TO FORMALLY ROLL OUT its smaller Pentium 4 processor using the .13 micron process at speeds of 2.2GHz around about January 7th. But AMD is determined to spoil Intel's fun, according to sources close to the smaller chip firm. On that day it will introduce its 2000+ Athlon XP and now we're so confused about how to convert a PR rating to a megahurtz rating that we're not sure how fast it runs. We think it's a 1662MHz part. Pity it's not 1664, then we could call it the Kronenbourg. There's a formula somewhere but anyroad the gist of it is that AMD believes its XP will perform at least as fast as a Pentium 4 2GHz processor. Our understanding is that the 2000+ will be available in quantity at that date and AMD will continue its policy of attacking Intel on both the price and performance fronts. Intel has already got these Northwood .13 micron processors in the channel and they're being reviewed by the monthly thick things, but it is maintaining the fiction that it won't comment on unannounced products. AMD declined to comment on any future announcement. µ
