Elmer, Yes a 7-11% improvement in today's MPU industry is nothing to sneeze at. Steve

Elmer - RE: "First I consider a 7-11% increase on productivity benchmarks (whatever that means) compared to a PIII to be quite significant. This is with SDRAM, not DRDRAM. And a 5-21% FP improvement is also a very significant boost. I'm looking forward to more detail." But did you see that the Cuontimemine benchmarks were done on a "pre-production" motherboard? That MUST mean Intel could have rigged it, right? After all, if the benchmaks aren't done on ONLY motherboards you can purchase, they don't matter one iota!!!
