Greg,

Re: "Can AMD pull off Athlon success?"

Based on AMD recent past history, it doesn't look like they will "pull it off".
There was the K6 and K6-2 process manufacturing fiasco's and then the
"coup de gras" ... The K6-3 "No-Show". Please tell us Greg why you believe
that AMD can pull it off ... Please try to use a few facts to backup your
HYPE. TIA

Make It So,
Yousef

Bad Nus - Re : " you still seem dumbfounded as to what to say about AMd's technological progress of K-7 over Intel's inabilities."

The LaughALON is an OK chip.

AMD then "cheated" on some benchmarks to make it look even better.

They should have taken the effort to manufacture a few more.

As per AMD's past, the LaughALON is becoming a "future" product, allowing Intel to regain the performance lead.

Keep October 24 on your calendar clear, bad nus.
