Jim, "DELL got the editor's choice, not Intel. I'm not surprised that PC Week was
not willing to stick their neck out just yet. Will Dell when they start losing
performance comparisons?"

I don't know what you mean that PC Week was not willing to stick their necks out. Do you mean PCMagazine? Anyway, the comparison in the PCMAG article was between Compaq and IBM Athlon's, and Dell and Quantex Plll's. These were head to head comparisons of available or soon to be available systems and not some rigged AMD system using a motherboard that Anand claims no one can buy.

I think it rather confusing that the web page with the PC Week article claiming that PC Week could not get Plll's has a direct link to the PC Magazine report who had them. What that means beats the devil out of me but there has been no dearth of Plll 600 benchmarks on the web.

In the back of my mind I keep wondering why Raza resigned if everything is coming up roses. Maybe Dell, Gateway, etal know the reason. Do you?
