Jim, We know how benchmarks can be manipulated. Are you implying that both PC Magazine and PC World manipulated their tests to make the PIII/820/RDRAM combination look better? If you'd care to e-mail that accusation to them, I'd be interested in their response. Please post it when it comes back. Of course the greatest criteria of all, is cost. Actually, that's just the next step. First, the anti-Intel crowd claimed RDRAM would never work. Then it did. Then they claimed it would be flaky. It isn't (anymore <G>). Then they said it wouldn't provide any better performance. Independent tests show that it does. Now the claim is that it'll never come down in price. We're both in agreement that that is the next key milestone to meet. But so far the anti-Intel crowd has been wrong about everything else, so there's no reason to believe your accuracy will suddenly improve.
