RE:"A typical AMDroid response"

Ah, cut the bull,

RE:"Infrasrtucture costs - mempory, chip sets, MBs - will still give Pentium IIIs a distinct market segment."

Versus P4, yes, at least 'till a DDR/SDRAM chipset appears for the P4. Then again it's likely to be made in Taiwan.
Sound familiar?
OTOH, versus the Athlon, P3 doesn't enjoy your listed advantages as much as it used to.

My only point really was the MHz gap you can drive a truck through. Something we talked about a long time ago. But it seems it will widen even more the way P4 will scale.
Soon it will be 1.7 to 1.0. Then 2.0 to 1.0 unless Tualatin shows on the desktop sooner than I think.
