Kevin - Re: "Did Intel roll out the server version of PII (Xeon) at the same time it introduced PII itself"

No, in fact they didn't.

But Intel only had itself to compete with.

Now, AMD is admitting their K7 is going to have to compete with Intel's high end Desktop CPUs - Pentium II now , Katmai later and Coppermine in mid-late 1999, and the K7 will not be competitive in the workstation/server line.

I'd say AMD is giving you a HEAD's UP, Kevin.

Take it for what it's worth - AMD won't be competing with Intel's XEONS let alone Cascades chips next year.
