<"the world fastest and most advance processor, PIII, available at cost at onsale!"

Isn't that false advertising?>

I guess the key word is "available." Sooner or later, Athlon supply will increase, and it too will be "available."

Speaking of the "world's fastest and most advanced processor," have you seen Steve Jobs going at it again? He now has Mac zealots thinking that the PowerPC G4 500 MHz is 2.94 times faster than a Pentium III 600 MHz. This is the same guy who said that an iMac outperformed a Pentium II 400 MHz, a claim that PC Magazine already shot down with their own tests (even with Celeron 333). The sad thing is, all the Mac fanatics believe this bull like it was gospel.
