RE:"2.5G P4s now on Pricewatch, along with more pages of 2.4G chips. AMD now 800+ MHz behind Intel!"

Some would say you are fudging it a bit not using Quantispeed but I still see most ads using Mhz as well as Quantispeed...so it's a lot worse than just using quantispeed and probably not as bad as using Mhz.

See, this even will post a problem for AMD if Hammer comes out at 3200+ to 3400+ and Intel is somewhere about 2800 Mhz...because most ads will still feel compelled to use raw Mhz as well...so the consumer will feel good that he figured out AMDs "trickery".
We already know that AMD has little PR capable of educating the masses. So Hammer may not be the easy sell it was when it outscaled the P3...despite out performing the P4 by an even larger margin.
