Evan, agree with pretty much everything you say. Wonder if Altivec will turn out to be the first significant mistake since Apple's revival. Intel has successfully centered their marketing around Mhz. IBM is Apple's only option to compete in the Mhz game and Apple would have had such an easy time marketing similar Mhz machines vice using benchmarks and run offs. It would be significant if Apple can drop a speed bumped G3 into the Sawtooth board and so gain all the other advantages. Regarding Rambus, I'm a trader in that stock so I follow it. Obviously, there is pretty good controversy but rambus machines will ship in Sep. Samsung is already in volume production. Whether it will initially run at 400 Mhz (Front and back for 800) or 300, I don't think is clear yet. Whether it will show real world performance gains sufficient to offset initial costs is also up in the air. But there will be rambus machines in Sep. Rich
