Neither PC133 or AGP4x is a real performance booster.

I rather AMD concentrate their design resources on SMP, Spitfire, Mustang, Thunderbird and Sledge hammer.

AMD needs to pick what they work on very carefully. Intel, after all this time, with all its resources, does not have a PC133 and AGP4X solution and you are "appalled" that AMD does not have it after 4 months? I don't see where you are coming from.

I disagree with your assessment 100%.

IMHO completely dumb priorities"

How hard could it be for AMD to push the 750 chipsets to 133MHZ?
Even worse is the lack of a 2 way chipset. This is unconscionable.
