Tench,

Re: Mobile CPU comparison.

I think you know very well that Intel is skirting the benchmark issues.

They like to compare the Dixon to a mobile PII.
They compare the new 366 Celeron mobiles to Pentium MMX mobiles.

They should be comparing the current mainstream offerings:

Low end is the mobile Celeron and high end is the mobile Dixon.

The only essential difference is the extra 128K of cache in Dixon.

I bet the extra cache makes little difference in the benchmarks which is why they don't want to compare them.

But you knew that already didn't you.

Regards,

Kash
