re:"4 Pages of 1.3 GHz CPU vendors on Pricewatch !!!" This 1.3/1.33 rollout is getting very confusing. I think its obvious that a TBird 1.3 and 1.33 do exist, based on that bootleg preview on tbreak.com Its tough to tell, but the benchmark results for that chip didn't seem very impressive, although it was only run with PC133, and at that clock speed, the Athlon is data starved on SDRAM, especialy Quake 3.

On of the slides at the Morgan Stanley conference shows AMD production of both desktop and laptop Palomino in Q1 ("Prod 1Q01") Someone said laptop Pally would be on Monday 3/19 and desktop on Monday 3/26. So, what's the point of the 1.33 GHz TBird, possibly released this Monday, if a 1.33 Pally is following the next week?

Will something higher than 1.33 be released? (AMDroid hopes)
Are all the 1.33's and the TBREAK review really Palomino's?
Was the TBREAK review designed by AMD to cast doubt on the 1Q desktop Pally introduction (by making it seem like a TBird)?
