RE:"AND IF YOU SAY ANYONE ELSE BUT ME, I WILL BE SERIOUSLY P*SSED!!!"... Me! and three or four other people....<GGGG> Even Paul said it a month and a half ago when he said IBM was readying 750MHZ Athlons. <GGG> Elmer and Youseless definitely didn't say it though, if that's some consolation.

Ted, re: < AND IF YOU SAY ANYONE ELSE BUT ME, I WILL BE SERIOUSLY PSSED!!!> LOL Here is another article from the Register, but this on Coppermine: theregister.co.uk _____________ Intel beset by further Coppermine, chipset delays* Lack of fast Coppermine chips from Intel is causing even big players in the PC industry to drastically adjust their schedules, costing them time, money and face. Reliable reports say that Intel will not now be able to ship its 700MHz Pentium III part until January 2000 at the earliest, while there are also availability problems with a number of other components, as previously reported. Sources close to Fujitsu Siemens have now told The Register that the giant is telling its customers of problems sourcing not only Coppermine processors but also the ZX chipset in December. The new Coppermine processors were announced to a blare of publicity in October, but large OEMs such as Fujitsu Siemens are being told they will not have stock of many of these chips until after the 15 November. Totally coincidentally, it appears, this is the date that Intel says the i820 (Caminogate) chipset will be ready. Our thanks, again, to an Israeli reader who pointed out that Timna, the codename for Intel's system-on-a-chip part, is the name of a town in the country which has a played out copper mine. © theregister.co.uk _____________ If there is any truth to what the register is saying about Coppermine 700MHz being delayed till Jan'00, then there is no real need for AMD to release K7 750; unless to give a nice boost to the stock price and to make the stock holders happy. Also. K7 will be the only in the town for these holidays with 700 and 750 speed crowns :o) Regards, Goutama
