Jim - <How much 733 volume is there?>

Since you asked, a LOT more than K7 700's!!! Bin split wise my guess is at least 3X in favor of Intel at this point.

<Anyone can put an add up.>

I that what you believe Jim? Are you saying this is a paper launch?? As you say, ja ja ja ja ja!

<FLASH!!!!!!!
Wait, it looks like Intel has regained the MHZ lead from AMDs Athlon, 733 to 700...Maybe not...lets wait until the 24th!>

Today is not the 24th.

Anyway, I guess I get a kick out of this, due to all the speculation in the recent past that coppermine won't scale in MHz. It has been my position for all my SI tenure of 6+ moths that the MHz race between Intel and AMD would be close once Coppermine was launched. It would not surprise me to see a tug of war for the next several months w.r.t. Coppermine vs. K7 MHz.
