SCUMbria - Re: "You might want to check with your electricity company to make sure your wiring can support the current requirements.'

High power dissipation in the AthWipey doesn't bother you - does it?

Why do you never whine on about the 52 Watts dissipated by the Athwipey when an equivalently clocked Coppermine dissipates only slightly more than HALF that amount?

You also don't seem to mind that the low power dissipation of the Coppermine - along with SpeedStep - has taken over ALL THE high performance notebook market - where AMD's AthWipey has ZERO - NADA - ZIPPO - design wins.

You do remember all those 600 and 650 MHz Sony Speed Step notebooks you saw at Fry's last week end - don't you, SCUMbria?
