Re: "Some remarks from Tom Pabst on the K7: I'll give you 100 bucks for each benchmark or application that runs faster on a PIII than on a K7 at the same clock speed"

Nothing much new here and 100 bucks isn't much. They continue to compare the K7 to the PIII. My take on this is that they are not comparing it to the coppermine. How could they when they don't know the performance boost Intel will enjoy with larger on-die L2 cache. No mention of Xeon either, always PIII. In addition the article states the chipset won't support AGP4X or ATA-66 and will use 100MHz SDRAMs. More reason to believe they are not comparing performance to Coppermine and it's Camino chipset.
