Peter, Re:<<So there is no "moral obstacle" against a new naming scheme which is indeed more precise for the customer than the current one.>> I think you miss the essential point - marketing the awareness to the public that mhz does not equal performance is something that should have been begun and hammered home long ago by AMD marketing. Making such suggestions to AMD marketing is like talking to the dead: You don't get much response. They don't seem to think very well or clearly. You don't tend to see much goal-directed activity. Perhaps AMD should consider actually replacing their current marketing/pr/branding departments with dead people, as a cost savings measure, given their precarious profit situation currently. I'd bet they'd work for minimum wage or less, wouldn't eat very much in the company cafeteria, health benefit costs would be low, and they'd probably have the same level of effectiveness as the current crew ;-) Jamok
