Jim - RE: "He asked "why do you want all that power?""

That would be the perfect catch phrase for Intel marketing trying to dissuade consumers from purchasing an Athlon!

Why do you want all that power?!

Jim, just called Best Buy here in Little Rock, AR,
IBM's in stock, Athlon-550
The clerk thought the Best Buy Sunday ad would carry them.

Arkansas has them!

But until Walmart gets one in a Packard Bell chassis, they do not exist yet.

Appreciate your work on the MB list.

re: "He asked 'why do you want all that power?'
Funny question from a pro-Intel person."
