Burt, RE:"As a working engineer of some experience, this smells to me of higher ups demanding that product be shipped and dates be met. Usually engineers are reluctant to let product go out to market. We engineers want to test endlessly to ensure perfection. The art is in knowing when to release the product. Microsoft, in my opinion, releases too early and they have gotten away with it. Up to this past year, Intel was not prone to these kinds of errors. I suspect that the pressure has simply been ramped up to such a high degree that truth can be crushed under managerial demands. For a while." This is nothing new...heck AMD was deemed a bunch of screw-ups while they pushed the K-6 to it's limits... Again, it's all about Mhz...if your chip don't scale you go to jail...and do not pass go... I think Intel should be given credit for getting the P6 to 1000 Mhz...truely a wonder in itself... Jim
