We all know that just because a chip is capable of n operations per clock, it almost never executes n operations in one clock.

P4 has fake MHz, no question about it. AMD needs to explain it to the public. But the way to do it is to explain that not all of the P4's pipeline is running at advertised MHz.

I think there is a good chance that P4 has three (not two) clock domains and that P4's decoder is running at half the speed. That makes a 1.5GHz P4 a 750MH/1.5GHz CPU. If Intel is hiding this fact they are perpetrating fraud and false advertising.
