Joe, <You may be completely right in that AMD's initiative is not ideal. But it's better than nothing. It's better than not measuring performance at all, and measuring clock speed instead.>

I think this is where we'll have to agree to disagree. I think AMD's initiative is worse than just measuring clock speed. At least the clock speed is real. You can't fake that. But you can easily fake a "quantispeed" number.

Hence the sheer idiocy of Sanders' words, "We'll have a model 10,000 by the time they reach 10 GHz."

<AMD marketing has hard enough time to get the truth out.>

That doesn't matter. They're trying anyway.
