<With the release of Athlon, however, AMD now has a chip that will compete in the performance PC segment. Analysts who have tested the chip and examined its architecture have nearly universally stated that the Athlon offers more performance than a Pentium III running at the same clock speed. > Check out comment from John Carmack of ID Software and Tim Sweeny of Unreal - two gaming industry gurus - about Athlon performance compared to PIII. AMD is kicking some major butt in games. And, Intel's Wilamette, that is intended to compete with Athlon, is a 2001 product per Otellini's remarks in Q2 conf call. Good luck for INTC longs. Chuck
