Bill as you say, the knowledge of computer buyers is a whole lot more than what John Fowler says. AMD has about 17% market share, so a whole lot more than 1% recognize AMD. Re << There must be a number that expresses the performance per $, like a Reynolds number or some such>> What does Reynolds number have to do with this? :) Mani

Bill, AMD & Athlon is well represented at retail, Joe Sixpack know that it's a great product, it's all the techs will buy. So what percentage of unit volume does AMD enjoy? Why? re: "Why are you so loyal to Intel? own lots?" Yes, and I've made lots of money on my investment. Why are you so loyal to AMD? If I thought AMD was going to win the marketplace, and have the appreciation that Intel has had since I bought it, I would sell my Intel and buy AMD in a second. My "knowledge of history" makes me believe otherwise. John
