kash - <With imminent release by AMD of a 750 in 0.25 and also 0.18 micron devices on the way- sure looks good for AMD IMHO.>

Have you already forgotten the quoted article where AMD officials outlayed the Athlon MHz roadmap. It was nothing special, even into the ".18" timeframe. I believe the Athlon is .18 in the front end already, and unless the device is already Rc limited, going to .18 backend won't provide any "magical" scaling ability. They may have sandbagged a little. Nonetheless, I will go on record as saying Coppermine should perform at least as well in raw compared to Athlon over time. Coppermine scales quite well actually.
