Peter, Re:I think it was an incredible success for AMD to gain back the performance crown so convincingly. It's a leapfrog game. Athlon XP (is that what they call it?)might have brought the performance crown back to AMD, but I haven't looked at any benchmarks. Northwood will bring it back to Intel, I'd bet. CPU execution speed is just one parameter for OEMs and end users to consider, and is not even a major factor. Infrastructure support, company viability, ability for manufacturing to deliver JIT, of engineering to deliver new products on schedule, and chip reliability are just a few things that come to mind right away that are all more important than chip speed. That is, of course, unless chip speed is out by more than a few percent from the competition. You guys make far too much out of performance. Tony
