Ten, <K7 chips that some of the developers have in their possession may just be older "defeatured" chips used for platform (as opposed to performance) validation.> This sounds like a mature judgement. However, all the software is written and optimized for P-II, with ILP right on the processor capabilities, and P-III apparently took into account major programming patterns from M$S bloatware. How do you expect to outperform this clinch of Intel hardware and Microsoft software? Don't you think that the Mustang-K7 (tm Allen Kim) can do significantly better only on the software specifically optimized for K7?
