Elmer, Re:"So let me see if I have this straight. AMD presented no spec numbers whatsoever. Nothing for the K7 and nothing for the Xeon, only relative numbers. Is that right? If so don't you find this strange? NO NUMBERS SCUMBRIA?? and nobody questioned this? Did they give system configurations? How do you know they were comparing it to a high performing Xeon system? Why no numbers??? Forgive me if I withold comment when there are no facts." Well you sure are spreading the FUD tonight old boy!!! Yesterday you were posting Intels spec numbers for its mobile processors and extrapolating a whole bunch of CRAP. And those numbers on Intels website were all RELATIVE. In fact they DONT DARE put the absolute numbers up except for very few CPU's. But you know all this don't you Elmer. Let me give you a HINT. Saying you run 40% faster makes for better headlines than saying Fp of 16 for intel and 22 for AMD. But you know all this. You just want to spread the FUD!!! Keep spreading the news. Kash
