Tony - RE: "Neither Tualatin nor Palamine are even on the shelves, but I don't see that Intellabees are proclaiming the Intel chip to be the be-all and end-all of µPs. Pally might be a great chip, might not, but you guys are assuming that because Athlon is good, AMD is guaranteed to deliver nothing but great ones from now on. Let's wait and see."

I don't understand why people are arguing the benefits of mobile Palomino vs. Tulatin and how these benefits will affect market share. All that matters in the long run is price and availability. If it ever comes out, AMD will price mobile Palomino significantly below Tulatin and AMD may get a few design wins. That's basically how AMD's survived, by keeping prices lower than Intel's or by taking advantage of a lack of supply by Intel (late '99 - early '00).

Having said that, even if it doesn't amount to much in the big picture, it is still fun to brag one processor is better than the other. ;)
