Re: Do they now? For how long?...

Hey Paul,

Remember the use of Osbourne as a verb? As in "they Osbourned themselves into a disaster?

I guess Intel may as well pitch all of those 800 and slower chips. Once the 1Gig is out, PIII shoppers might pay for a 900, but who would settle for an 800, let alone a 700. Maybe they can sell the 800 for $100 bucks or so. The 700 and slower will probably just rot, though. If you're going to be that far beneath the curve, might as well save a little money and get a Celeron, right?

But hey, the Athlon has a 200MHZ bus, the sales guy says it's better, and they actually have them to sell, even the 850s. It's the fastest 200mhz bus system that's out there, and it really is there, might as well just get one of them, eh?

Maybe now we can substitute "Inteled" for "Osbourned"
