Kevin - RE: "I don't have any problem with the performance of the Coppermine--in fact I think Intel did a nice job getting it close to Athlon. The reason the Coppermine is a FLOPPERMINE is the pathetic stealth launch. Over a week and still no FLOPPERMINES on Pricewatch over 600 MHz!"

I don't see any FLOPPERMINES at Pricewatch! Am I not looking hard enough?

Ho hum. Quite a few Athlon 700 vendors.

Enjoy the situation while you can. It ain't gonna last, and all the Floppermine derision that is going on here isn't going to help AMD when the floodgates open up.
Good swimming to all.
