It's so garbled that it's hard to be certain what is begin said, but if nothing else, it's funny. Here is a sample:

As the following architecture article shows, is Athlon with 500 or 600 mc/s clearly under-required, so correctly he will probably blossom with 1 GHz and more. Probably could AMD manufacture now already faster processors, but why? In the AMD laboratories werkeln 700-MHz-Versionen in ' Xeon configurations ' with 2 MByte L2-Cache, the SPECint95-Werte of 31 and to beyond that obtain are (with it Athlon became even HPs PA-8500-Titanen the Integer performance crown entreissen, which obtains up-to-date 30.8 SPECint95). Only do not chip-corrode the suitable are finished yet. Start of next yearly wants to place the Irongate-R4 for RAM bus and Irongate-D4 for GDR SDRAM (double DATA rate) to AMD completely (the 4 is thereby for AGP 4x), so that such fast processors have an adequate memory to the page.
