Breaking the next major chip barrier, Intel Corp. plans to demonstrate a 1,000MHz Pentium III chip in February.

The Santa Clara, Calif., chipmaker will show the 1000MHz, or 1GHz, Pentium III, which is based on its current Pentium III design, code-named Coppermine, at the IEEE International Solid-State Circuits Conference on Feb. 7.

More on the Samples Intel might introduce nect week...courtesy of the AMD for lunch bunch.

NEW YORK. 4:21 PM EST-Intel Corp. (nasdaq: INTC) may have an 800 megahertz version of its Pentium III Coppermine chip, but can it really stay ahead in the megahertz derby? Published reports say that Intel might introduce 750- and 800-MHz versions of its Coppermine chips later this month, way ahead of the originally slotted release date of January 2000.

Intel's stock has jumped on the news, closing up $6.50 to $78.94. Rival chipmaker AMD (nyse: AMD) closed down $0.50 a share to $27.13.

But there is more to this story than meets the eye. For example, Intel will provide samples of its high-speed chips only to its OEM partners, not ship the actual products in volume. And Intel does not really have a large defensible lead in the megahertz race. Sources close to AMD believe that any lead Intel might get by introducing 750- and 800-MHz versions of their Pentium III Coppermine chip would be temporary.

AMD is likely to introduce an 800-MHz version of its Athlon chip in the first week of January, and will also introduce a 900-MHz version of the chip later in the first quarter, perhaps as early as the second week of February. The 1-GHz version of Athlon will ship in June. An AMD spokesperson declined to comment on the timeline of its new product introduction.'

Love that Forbes tax plan too!

RE:"Fleck comes from an inverse universe.'...
Fleck kind of reminds me of Jim Stack (except for the long hair) of Investech. Both have a Math background. Understandibly, they both have been negative on the market for a long time, going strictly by the numbers.

Gateway stealth-launches Athlon PCs...

Even though neither Gateway nor AMD have yet confirmed they're in a little huddle about
Athlon microprocessors, information on the former's Web site seems to confirm that the
deal is on.

Two weeks ago we were told by a highly placed source at Gateway that it was sending out
samples of PCs using the microprocessor.

If you point your browser to this URL
gateway.com. , you'll see that the
support staff are giving advice on installing the Athlon microprocessor in machines.

And meanwhile rumours are continuing to fly that Dell is playing around with the Athlon,
although other sources close to AMD plans told us that while the companies had "talked", it
was probably just a way for the heat to be turned up a little on the Chipzilla front.
