RE:"CuMine outperformed Athlon upon introduction both clock for clock and in absolute terms."

What was the P3 when Athlon came along? Cumine?
Also, headroom does mean a lot...and Hammer will have to deal with the headroom of the P4, for sure...the public is just too stupid about benchmarks and Mhz...

If a hammer is at say 3400+ at 2xxx Mhz and the P4 is running at 3000 Mhz the P4 will still sell easily....
Of course, if X86-64 catches on then AMD shifts the paradigm. Count on Intel scrambling to x86-64 if need be.
