JBoyd,

Re: "Wouldn't you say that AMD has gained on Intel in the last two years? Maybe
they can close the gap."

No, actually I would say that AMD has lost ground in process technology
over the past year. Remember, the K6 was introduced on April 2, 1997
at 166mhz, 200mhz and 233mhz. At this time, the K6 was as fast or faster
than any announced Intel processor. The problem was that AMD couldn't deliver.
Now today, AMD is struggling to go beyond 300mhz while Intel has easily
for some time been at 400mhz with 450mhz planned soon. AMD will NOT
catch up.

Make It So,
Yousef
