Monica, Re: "If Pricewatch is any indicator, total confusion will reign with AMD's new megapeckerenvy naming scheme." I agree. Milo hilighted it, but he clearly doesn't get it. Resellers are scared sh*tless about litigation, which is why they are specifying so clearly that 1800+ equals 1.53GHz and that 1500+ != 1500MHz. Whatever AMD hoped to gain by changing to qunti-speed naming conventions is lost, since most resellers seem compelled to include both quanti-speed and megahertz rating, which makes the qunti-speed rating seem like a scam. If their marketing was worth anything, they would be nurturing those resellers towards being consistent with their naming convention, and aligning it with AMD's direction. The current wishy-washy approach is already evidence that this scheme will go down hill fast. wanna_bmw
