Oh yeah, real apples-to-apples comparison there, Petz. Nowhere in the article did I see system configurations. I suspect that winmag.com, like PC Magazine, only reviews end-user system configurations, and doesn't do fixed configuration tests like Tom's Hardware Guide or Anandtech.

In other words, we don't know whether the components differed between Micron's PC and Intel's reference PC. They most probably did.

Of course, the main point of the article (the ... errr ... not so ideal Camino launch) still stands.

Petz - RE: "Winmag compares Athlon, PIII 600B with Camino and PIII 600B with VIA."

Just makes me want to go out, buy an i820 based PC, and spend MORE money for LESS performance!

Where can I buy one?
