Ten, RE:"<You see...the K7 will run at 1000 Mhz on .25u with a little seed path refinement> Says who? Even AMD will need to go to 0.18 microns to get to one gigahertz. Super-cooled setups don't count, or else Intel could claim they got their first with their super-cooled gigahertz Pentium II demo."... Who says? Oh some little birdie friend of mine. Anyway...who was it on here who couldn't find an Athlon unit at Best Buy? I wandered down there today and found a brand new IBM-Athlon 550 Mo'chine sitting on the end cap. Well, according to Elmer I expected it to be made of tin-foil. To my utter surprise it actually ran programs. Not bad either, for a foil. Do not underestimate the scalability of the Athlon... The noose tightens... Jim
