Jim - <You bet they will, in a heartbeat, provided AMD can deliver...the big ????.. An Athlon, faster than a Xeon but at Pentium III prices is a very attractive product.>

Even if all you say is true, there is more to it than that. K7 will start out as an enthusiast system at best, IMHO. For AMD to crack the real corporate space, they will need to demonstrate a prowess in developing an entire platform that is stable. A 15% break on the chip is not at all the entirety of what IS managers look at.
