Re: "You're right about the 833, I was confusing the 514 Alpha FP score, which was a 667 machine. Of course, the P4 doesn't quite touch the 883 Alpa FP score, 599"

We don't know how the P4 performs, this is just speculation based on rumors, but yes, that 599 Alpha score is higher than the rumored P4 scores but the mere fact that P4 is being compared to Alpha is pretty amazing considering the x86fp performance of the past.

Re: "As for the "sour grapes", did you ever actually find a commercial application that shipped with a binary produced by the Intel compiler, Elmer? I'm sure the spec binaries get used a lot in day to day production in the real world"

Numerous people have posted here saying they are using the Intel compilers for their commercial applications. You should read this thread more often.
