Ali - <and I do not need any confirmation for the
FACT that Athlon has been designed on
scadule, now is in production, and outperform
PeeIII/Xeon by 10-40% at the same clock rate
as reported by independent tester on the Web:)
So who was jumping in or out?>

Have you considered that one action may be independent of the other?

We all know this Ali, but maybe you should listen to DELL when they say the Coppermine will regain the highend. They have had a chance to look at both the Athlon and the Coppermine. I think they know what they are talking about.

zdnet.co.uk

"Duignan says: "With Coppermine in the pipeline, Intel looks as if it will regain the high ground. For a couple of months, AMD win the spec wars but they don't have an astounding combination of integration with the motherboard and further chipsets. It's a concern when it comes down to real life performance."

Are you going to call DELL a liar too?
