Kumar seems confused

" 'The second half looks fairly strong,' said Ashok Kumar, an analyst with USBancorp Piper Jaffray. But in the next breath, Kumar adds that 'They (Intel) need to come up with the equivalent of the Beetle…something to catch the user's eye.' "

I hope AMD has enough cash to hype their Beetle for the back to school season.

Re: "K7 is a very intelligently architected processor. AMD specifically avoided the pitfall of trying to impress the MDR/Microprocessor Forum crowd, and instead went after MHz."

One major flaw in Gwennap's analysis is that he made the (incorrect) assumption that all .25u, .18u, etc. processes are equal.

Could K7 hit 780 MHz on Intel's .25u process? I'm guessing yes.
