Re: "K7 looks pretty good doesn't it."

You mean the K7 foils look pretty good. Nobody saw a K7

Re: "Faster bus 200Mhz vs 100Mhz for Intel. 8 Meg L2 cache vs 1Mb for Intel. "

Intel is currently shipping Xeons with 1 Meg L2 cache, and HP processors with 1.5 Meg ON DIE!!! AMD is flopping foils.

RE: "Awesome FPU compared to Xeons best."

No benchmarks but nice looking foils.

Re: "A fully loaded 500 Mhz K7 system with 8Mb cache will blow away a 1Mb Xeon at same speeds. Oh and it will cost a whole lot less too."

Xeons are shipping and K7s are vapor. Come back when you have a product and compare it to Intel's products then.

Re: "The design is clearly awesome. Wether they can build 'em and ship 'em is the only question."

The foils are nice, no doubt. Intel is selling silicon today, not just foils.

Re: "AMD now has a superior architecture than anything that Intel has forecast or announced for 99."

No, today they just have nice foils.
