<The ONLY reason you are whining is because it is INTEL getting the GOOD PR - and NOT AMD !>

No I am "whining" because that's all this is for Intel. Just PR. If AMD initiated the kind of self destructive move that Intel just did I would be furious. I am already more than a little disappointed that AMD is actually stooping to respond to Intel's vapor release of their pre-production samples running on custom motherboards with elaborate custom cooling. This is not something I would ever be happy about AMD doing and I am very surprised that you would even claim that this is a good thing for Intel.

<1 GHz PCs out into the market.>

You consider pre-production samples as getting product into the market? You are either less intelligent than I thought or you are the one who is a cheerleader and your bias has blinded you.

<Losers whine - but Winners WIN !>

This isn't about you or I winning or losing and I am not whining. What I am doing is pointing out that Intel has announced that it will be shipping systems based on it's pre-production samples, with custom tweaked out motherboards, and custom tweaked out cooling solutions. just so that they can claim to be king of the hill. I am sorry but that is just plain pathetic.
