Try plugging 2 or 4 AthWipeys into a Server System.

I will not need to, since Athlons are faster. You can already buy 850 MHz Athlon. You can plug in 2 400 MHz samples of Itanium, and you will still be short.

Try running Oracle 8i database on that AthWipey system with a 32 GigaByte database.

I am a little partial to SQL Server, but if I had a 32 Gig Database with important information, I would not put it on a machine with a 400 MHz pre-production sample CPU. Also, I would not put it on a machine with early alpha operating system and database software.

I'm surprised your "Cyrix Experience" taught you nothing.

What did you learn from it? One thing you should have learned is that you should not give investment advice. Your last advice from you to me was to sell all my NSM and buy INTC. Let's see what would happen if I followed your advice:

Happily, I did not follow your advice.
