P4 followup from billybob at aceshardware: It seems that maybe the P4 doesn't suck on all fronts.

SpecFP2k on 1.5GHz P4 is 524, which is about 11% faster than P3 on a per clock basis.

Which is pretty good, though of course I'm sure this is dependent on Intel's latest, greatest special spec optimizing compiler that's useless for anything else. Expect to see that number flogged heavily in the upcoming campaign, as opposed to the integer spec number or numbers on anything not SSE optimized.

Cheers, Dan.
