Scumbria, <2GHz systems will be available by the end of this year> Presumably that means they expect to get Athlons that are capable of over 1.5 GHz air cooled, assuming cooling will give them about a 30% performance boost? Sounds like Willamette is not the end of the road for the Athlon to me.

Sumbria Re...<<<sources close to Kryotech, a US firm which offers souped up Athlon solutions which use supercooling technology, were suggesting 2GHz systems will be available by the end of this year. © theregister.co.uk >>>> LoL Scumbia, that was a interesting article. Just think, if Intel would have had any money left after IDF, Intel would have been able to afford a regular sized booth, food and a blimp to fly their banner. And now 2 ghz Athlons. Elmer must be shitting in his pants by now, wondering what to do with 6 million 500 mhz coppermines/wk.
