Jimbo, <AMD should stick a 1.33 gigHhz Athlon in a notebook and power it down to run at 800 Mhz and still call it a 1.33 Mhz. Only run it at 1.33 if ambient temperature is less than freezing.>

So you really think the mobile Pentium III at 1 GHz doesn't actually run at 1 GHz unless the "ambient temperature is less than freezing"? Give me a break.

By the way, you realize that AMD has much more room to "redefine" mobile clock speeds with PowerNow than Intel does with SpeedStep, right?
