Re: "During the last few months AMD has delivered beyond their promises. In contrast, Intel has fallen quite short. Gateway and Dell have made no secret of this."

And you believe Intel hasn't resolved their capacity problems and no further speed work has been done, right? Good, we are in sync. There is no reason whatsoever to think that Intel's process should ever produce anything faster than the first early production units from a brand new process. Even though their previous process yielded a nearly 2X improvement from first production to mature product, we should still see the same limits at around 800MHz that we have seen on early CuMine production. Right? No amount of speed path work is going to change that. Right? No process improvements will help what's basically an architecture limitation. Right? Obviously Intel won't get above their current speed. It's an architecture thing. It just wasn't built for speed so there's no way they can pull this off. Right? Pipelines too short. Right? I mean Intel is going to continue screwing up for ever. Right?

So, like I said. You and I are in agreement so don't pay any attention to those lies.
