Scumbria, I think you mean well, but you are talking rather ignorantly.

<Alpha was a "screamer" and PPC, M1, K6, P6 went the way of the "super-brainers".>

Comparing the P6 to the K6, I see, even though the P6's pipeline is as long as the K7's?

<now everyone is using the Alpha approach. This is evidenced by the microarchitecture of K7, Willamette, and M3.>

I don't know anything about the M3, but I don't think Willamette should even be in the same boat as the K7. Trust me, Willamette is a beast. (Translate "beast" any way you want.)
