Process Boy - <I just made a bet with kash that Intel will be ahead in MHz by the end of the year, due to reasons I cited that I perceive will enable this, i.e., process + new design>

AMD also has new processes (Hip7L, Hip8L etc.) planned for Athlon and I am sure they will try to work in core enhancements and tweaks as they go along. (in addition to on die cache and 266Mhz bus etc.) You state that Willamette will be ahead in MHz, Can you give me your opinion on how AMD's Athlon enhancements will effect it's performance relative to Willamette. In your opinion will AMD remain competetive with a slight disadvantage or will the race be over and Willamette the clear winner?

Thanks,
