fuzzymath,

This is the standard litany of doubts we're all familiar
with. The Economist article is filled with old news
about the benchmarks, half-and-quarter truths about the
cost of UltraSparc vs Itanium/Pentium.

I would have thought that a mag with the stature of the
Economist would be a little more scholarly and probative
than this. But here we have the British tabloid effect
leaching out into their financial publications. I can't
imagine that this kind of pablum would actually influence
investment decisions by any but the most feeble-minded
and unenlightened.

I'd like to check the editorial staff names & see if any
of their personnel have ever written for the Star or
the Enquirer.

Interestingly, it seems this article was timed to appear
at the same time as the INTC announcement of P4's.
