Re: "<speaking of Coppermine> That chip will also integrate the Level 2 cache, which generally brings about a 10 percent performance gain over similar chips running at the same clock speed but with off-chip cache. "

Now before Krash wets his pants and accuses me of lying, please notice this is from an article posted by a regular whom most would consider an AMD partisan (which he has every right to be). If this estimate is correct, Coppermine will outperform Athlon on many benchmarks. Petz, please stop posting this BS all over the net. Krash doesn't like hearing this so please stop.

Petz - RE: "There will be no more wafer starts for RDRAM until we can better understand how long it will take to resolve the Camino situation," said Avo Kanadjian, vice president for memory marketing at Samsung Semiconductor, San Jose, Calif. "Any capacity that can be freed up will be
reassigned to 128-Mbit or 256-Mbit SDRAM products. We will require some convincing before we restart any RDRAM production."

Maybe ANOTHER $100M contribution from Intel would help!
