Jim - RE: "New Intel Pentium-III logo... P-III on top of a snail... Intels new martketing plan?" Here is an ad I saw tonight at Yahoo: The first thing you see is a Tortise and a Hare positioned like they are about to take off for a race. The perspective makes it look like the hare is poitioned ahead of the tortise. This is an animated ad, so the word Go is shown and the next screen says this - "The Fastest, Most Advanced, Processor for PCs... Pentium !!! Available at ONSALEatCost" And guess which animal is shown - the Tortoise! The Fastest, Most Advanced, Processor for PCs is like the tortoise who beat the hare! Haha. I don't mind the Athlon being the hare, because in the real world, the hare wins! Onsale/Intel is living in a fairy tale!
