Don't forget the DETAILS :

"Dealers said chip distributors told them as recently as August 5 not to expect Athlon chips, especially in volume quantities, just yet. The Athlon is not universally compatible with all expansion cards and other PC parts on the market, said other sources. "

You seem to ignore reality, what with that glow in your eyes !

The K7 may get a bad rap for INCOMPATABILITY - as a guy named WINDSOCK suggested when he noticed that the laughALONs don't have the Microsoft Windows Compatability Logo.

And we all know, the Internet is a great place to "alert" folks to incompatability problems.

Wow!

The part I liked the best in this article (and there were so many parts I liked) was the reference to "the accelerated product launch".

I am beginning to think AMD will open 'up 1' on Monday.
