Scot, Obviously the cnbc commentator is reading the WRONG thread. Anyway...I liked this response. RE:"Purple_Kush responded… Should we give credit to Transmeta for their low power Crusoe chip not yet available to consumers? Should we give credit to IBM for their 4.5 Ghz chip not yet available to consumers? Should we give credit to AMD for their Sledgehammer chip not yet available to consumers? Should we give credit to Intel for the Willamette and Itanium not yet available to consumers? I think NOT!!!! The bottom line is AMD's Athlon chip IS available to consumers." And the Athlon is available at higher speeds than the Floppermine. Technically 50 Mhz but more than that in reality... Jim
