Chuck - RE: "One needs to consider all these and many other issues to determine if it make sense for anyone to talk about releasing a 1.5G part when the last part released was 1G."

Thanks for spelling all that out in your post. It just does not make sense for AMD to release 1.5GHz this early. I'm on Chic's side - show a demo.

VIA has already said there will be a 1.4GHz demo, which will more than likely be a Kyrotech unit. Does anyone remember how much % higher MHz the cooled processor was than its spec'd speed? I can't check the sites right now... I think it was about 33% max, so the processor they are using in the 1.4GHz demo may be a 1.1GHz Athlon.
