RE:"21% increase in performance"

Paul,

Thanks for the pointer.

I am a somewhat dubious about the testing methodology since the motherboard, disk and graphics cards were different between the 333 and 400 MHz tests. Specifically the fact that the AGP bus was running at twice the speed on the 400 MHz systems. Most of the speedup was due to the graphics intensive applications "Adobe PageMaker and CorelDraw."

It will be interesting to see a true apples to apples comparison. It is clear however that Intel stands alone at the high end of performance.
