I was trying to tell the thread about Willy for a long time.

The Pokemon Willy turned out to be an 800MHz sample, which in Randy's own words runs fast but benchmarks poorly.

LOL. But just wait for McWilly.

<From jc-news: MolDyn is pretty much a pure floating-point benchmark. These preliminary results show this 800MHz (presumed) Pentium IV to be on par (roughly) with a 550MHz P6 (Pentium III, Celeron, Xeon, take your pick) core.>

Sounds right on the money to me. AMD is on a gravy train to Fat City.

jajajajaja
