Re: "we arent all as fast as you on this stuff. whether you like it or not, it was designed to be thought of as an off the line chip that ran at 1Ghz. "

I'm not that special. It was presented to a Developers Forum of about 1500 Engineers. I expect every one of them knew it was cooled and Intel expressly said it was a technology demonstration, not a product. Intel has been doing this at least since the 100Mhz i486 they showed years ago. Every one of them was actively cooled. It just goes to show how the public can get confused. Why people actually believe there is a K7 near production when AMD has never even shown one in public.
