Niceguy, <It's the same old song!> You don't know how true that is: www3.techstocks.com Notice a certain pattern there? Exactly 12 months ago, people were talking about AMD's successes with the K6-2, and eventual success with the K6-III. The only difference between then and now was the fact that AMD advocates were wondering out loud, "Who needs a 450 MHz Pentium II?" But the tired old "Intel is in trouble" chant hasn't changed. Tenchusatsu P.S. - They were also singing the praises of 3DNow!, how Intel's SSE (formerly known as Katmai New Instructions) will be too late and too proprietary, how AMD leads in retail sales, how scarce Intel-based systems were compared to AMD-based systems on the shelves of Circuit City, etc. You are right, it really is the same old song!
