Re: "EP, who told you that they were running it at 1.5 G during the powerpoint conference? That's in dispute unless you have a new link to provide that verifies it without a doubt. You yourself indicate that Willamette is a very immature chip....meaning potentially unstable....would you risk running one at top speed for two hours with the risk of a crash/goof like B. Gates a few years back? I doubt it." First let me correct myself. I do not know that it was running at 1.5GHz for the PPT presentation. But according to eye witnesses it was stated by Albert Yu that the presentation was done on a Willamette. I posted a link earlier today where you can listen to the presentation and according to the original poster, you can hear Albert say so himself. I wouldn't have taken the chance myself. EP
