Sour grapes about Intel's rollout. We got the fastest chip now. No matter what kind of rollout Intel made with Coppermine, you guys would have found reason to pi all over it. I guess I'd be pied too if I'd bought AMD at practically any time in the past 16 years. Over the long and winding road, you know that Intel will sell X times as many micros than AMD will, where X is a good-sized number, because of their far superior process and manufacturing engineering. Throw in a couple of trivial factors, like brand name and marketing, and it's no contest. Tony
