RE:"Gee, with all the documented problems Gateway is having with Intel, why would they go ahead and announce a PIII 800???"..

I imagine it went something like this...

Gateway: Uh, Craig (Barrett), people are begging us for Athlon systems. They are available at 700 and 750 Mhz...Compaq and IBM are already offering them...we look like stooges because of your Floppermine launch.

Intel: Hold on, we will jack up the Flopper to 750 and 800 just for you. See, here's a few chips so you can announce now. More to come, trust us...we've never duped you before right? nudge...

EOS...

BTW, your buddy Paul Engel is now predicting that AMD will make $.68/share on sales of $910 Million this quarter.
Do you know why people love the Athlon?
