James, I suspect not everbody is aware of Intel losing the lawsuit. It has even been suggested that this was an Intel marketing move to get rid of older inventory. The $50 rebate coupon is available only for p120/133 users who choose to upgrade and bup the "OverDrive". I'm still trying to verify this by writing the lawyer. In any case, strategic marketing move or not, I think it damaged Intel's benchmark reputation and will hurt them in the FTC investigations under the category of "unfair trade practice". Here a link to the story & link to the settlement if you have further questions. techstocks.com Much of this debate is on the AMD thread...interesting pros & cons. Mike
