Exactly right. They are running scared big time.

If Willy is ready show us some benchmarks. Let's see few evaluation systems. Yields are fine, demand is great and Willy is out of this world.

Meanwhile I hear that Floppers are failing consistently on these Bytemark binaries on both Windows and DOS.

img.cmpnet.com - dos32/dos4gw

Apparently these binaries only work consistently for bus speeds bellow 75MHz.

I don't own a Flopper to verify this, maybe someone else can?

The other thing I hear is that the Flopper's power dissipation MAX is not what Intel is saying in their specs, but jumps well over 60W on some floating-point patterns. The plastic Flopper package may not like that, hmmm.
