Scumbria,

<The Willamette demo is starting to look like a big sham.>

Sham is too strong a word but so far it looks to me like Wilamette is still a 1.5G/750M processor being touted a 1.5G processor.

<Where did the 3.0 GHz number come from? >

I am interested in this too.

<In the old days, Intel was very honest with their product announcements, and AMD was always in question. The roles seem to have reversed. AMD is becoming the trusted company, and Intel appears desperate.>

As much as the MHz numbers sound confusing, I don't see much desperation on Intel's part here. Clearly 20-stage pipeline is nothing to sneeze at. MHz sells and Intel will advertize the Integer MHz - most probably in 2001.
