Elmer, Headroom? Intel's P-III is standing on it's tip toes, already under the surface of the AMD ocean, with a straw in it's nostril just reaching the surface, praying 'nobody make a wave'.
Elmer, the P-III ran out of headroom around 800-850 Mhz and that is why there are none for sale above that. Every tweak to increase one speed parameter decreases another one the only fix is another chip, so there are months of this shortage to continue, and guess what? The AThlon still has headroom and will soon have on chip cache at full speed.
