Cirrus, <Lets first see if Willa-its-original-release-date-be-mette?>

Which release date are you talking about? The only one I know of is Q4 2000, which is the most realistic date to me.

<Then we talk actual MHz and performance. And then we talk co$t of platform.>

MHz should be up there. So should performance. Cost should be relative to a high-end desktop today. Though I have nothing to do with Willamette, I'm more worried about physical and electrical issues than performance. I'm also worried about the real possibility that Willamette might be more than the public is willing to handle. (I'm not as worried about Foster, since that's meant for servers where the sky's the limit.)

Cirruslvr,
re:"Lets first see if Willa-its-original-release-date-be-mette?"

Given Intel's OUTSANDING track record since September, I believe their OUSTANDING track record will continue. Barrett is doing a great job. I hope he has many more years at Intel.

Winky winky: Go buy some more AMD.
:o)

Make it so,
