Re: "the AMD-K7 processor will be the highest-performance processor for Windows computing on the market in 1999"

More backpeddling. NT is not considered the "Windows" computing market, so again AMD is not claiming the highend as they were before. AMD's position is now:

1) The K7 shouldn't be compared to Coppermine or Xeon
2) The K7 will not be the highend NT processor

IF someone disagrees perhaps they can explain why AMD doesn't just say the K7 will be the fastest x86 in '99 PERIOD. They used to make that claim, they don't anymore.
