Re: "AMD has closed the significant speed grade gap in just 6 months. In another 6 months, at current rates, Outel may find themselves in a position not dissimilar to AMD's before the Athlon...that being, several speed grades behind...Yes, it does seem a new order is in place as we begin the year 2000!"

But you got it backwards NiceGuy. When Athlon came out it was a speedgrade ahead of Intel and even more in performance. It has been Intel that has closed the gap in speed and overtaken AMD in performance. The momentum is on Intel's side, not AMD's.
