EP, <K7 is stuck with very high, expensive pincount,> Could you enlighten us exactly how high is the K7 pinout? Does it ever come to your analytical mind that your assumptions may not be quite true? <expensive chipsets possibly with multiple versions,> Of course, it is highly economical to build single-CPU systems with a highly-redundant SMP-capable (and therefore slower) "universal" chipset, very true :[ <The Intel P6 bus has none of these problems.> There were many other busses without problems except one - they ran at 1-10MHz... <The on die L2 greatly reduces processor pin count, reducing packaging cost and equipment cost and increasing performance.> Wow, what a revelation! You must be in strategic marketing, bud. You only forgot who has a better technology to built dense caches for smaller silicon footprint... <Ali, you're just getting more and more confused as time goes by.> Sure, what else can a screwdriver do against highly acquainted individuals like youself? - he-he-he:)
