Re: "You really don't understand the "benchmarking game" and how it's played? How long have you been around this stuff?"

About 18 years. That's long enough to know that the benchmark losers are always the ones who cry foul. You'd never make that statement if AMD was winning the benchmarks.

Re: "He also said he never seen a 1 GHz PIII yet. Why is that? Haven't those been released already?"

Yes they have and they are shipping in quantities equivalent to Athlons. I know this is a shock but "Best Buy" is not the only place on earth where CuMines are sold and one salesman's comments should not be construed to reflect the worldwide market.
