gotta_chevy? I do not agree that AMD has been definitively beaten. They have been beaten, yes, but not definiitively. An improved 1.5+ GHZ A4 might yet turn the tables. AMD has been holding back on a release.....could it be to get it better? An improved stepping that is both faster as well as better at it's job could well redress the equation. Remember that a 1.8 Ghz P-4 was behind the 1.4 Ghz A-4 in about the same way that the 2 Ghz P-4 is ahead of the 1.4 Ghz A-4. Now a 100 Mhz increase will not make it beat the P-4, but it could bring it to equivalence, and a better A4 at 1,5 Ghz could beat the P-4 2 Ghz.!! Since there are pet Intel benchmarks that show the 1.2 Ghz P-4 better than the 1.4 Ghz, I wwill choose to use the Anandtech or other neutral benchmarker, and even he does use some benchmarks that favor Intel while not using those that favor AMD, so he does cripple the AMD by a little bit.
