If the Mhz is there, the price is right and the current draw is low enough, Palomino will sell.
Jim, what are the specs for Palomino mobile, i.e., speed and power? Any numbers leaked or otherwise? I don't remember seeing any and I read a lot around here. AMD has yet to show competency in low power, high speed, have they? Will they compete with 0.13 Tualatin? AMDroids seem to think Palo is a slam dunk. May be, but the proof is in the pudding, or putting, whatever.
Transmeta, if they can pump their chip over 1 gig will be even a bigger player.
Jerry said the other day on CNBC there were only two players in the µP chip game, i.e., after getting done with his pig trash talk. I wonder if he remembers what it's like eating crow, as in K5 (+ K6-3) days.
