PB, It is true that your direct knowledge has a higher confidence level than rumors, however often rumors are valid. In addition his friend could be higher up the management totem pole than you from his location and may have a better idea of the overall picture than you...who may be blinded by closeness with the team and youthful exuberance?

Process Boy < Ref Charles rR and his contacts> The thread is fixated upon Charles R sources within Intel. Unfortunately his sources have not been very credible in the past. It was repeatedly claimed by Charles sources, that Intel had no response to the Athlon until Willamette, and Coppermine was nothing but a higher speed Katmai. We heard that repeatedly, and when we were all surprised by the Coppermine enhancements at MPF, I made the following comments: Message 11470347 " As a matter of fact Charles R, should break off his association with his friends and sources within Intel. They have caused him great pain where it hurts most. In his pocketbook ! " Since Charles friends past credibility is poor, we have to take their statements with a very large pinch of salt.
