Petz - <Actually Anand's comment is all about performance per MHz of clock frequency, not about how much higher in MHz the new core will run.> I know that. I was referring to some speculations made some time back about AMD leapfrogging Intel in the MHz race by going to .18. I don't have the postings from that era, nor do I remember all the folks posting the counter points, but I specifically made a prediction that the Athlon would experience a "one speed grade jump" when it transistioned from .25 ot .18. That's apparently exactly what has happened. I have made no prediction that I am aware of as to the top MHz performance an Athlon, .18 or otherwise. PB
