Re: "Anand's article is fascinating. It shows that at 400 MHz Xeon at $2000, runs a full 20% faster than a $100 300 MHz Celeron. 20% performance gain at only 2000% the price!!!! It just goes to show how ignorant corporate PC buyers are, and how much promise AMD has as an investment. Intel has succeeded in creating a totally non-sensical price structure, which AMD will now use to reap rewards." Scumbria it just goes to show how ignorant you are. Do you really think IBM, Compaq, HP, DELL, etc etc are lining up to buy every Xeon they can get their hands on just because their customers are too stupid to get Anands benchmarks and see for themselves? I can just see them now smacking their foreheads in the corporate boardrooms when they realize they could have been buying 4/8-way Celeron servers instead of those 1-2meg Xeons if only they knew what you and Anand know!
