It would be too bad if Intel successfully puts AMD out of business. A friend of mine just bought a new Axes System with the Athlon 600, and it works great! A nice looking machine, too. There's is no doubt in my mind that Intel would have been much slower in lowering prices if it weren't for AMD. money.york.pa.us

Sorry steve,

AMD no longer has the fastest cpu in the world, get a new tag line.

Hampton Court, UK- September 17, 1999: Alpha Processor, Inc. (API),
debuting the fastest processor in the world running at room temperature - the
1GHz Alpha 21264 processor - utilizes Flotherm thermal management

fastest Intel Xeon solution.
