Chuckles - Re: "Yesterday you were so sure how Intel has captured the MHz lead. Within 24 hours, your 1G dreams petered out to "limited-edition" CuMines. " Not-So Limited Editions! 1 GHz Coppemines are out there - IN PRODUCTION - IN Dell and IN IBM and IN HP Computers - and AMD was caught flat footed. Intel HAS Regained the MHz lead - although even at a lower MHz, Intel's Coppermine has CONSISTENTLY and INDEPNDENTLY been shown to be faster than AthWipeys running at a higher clock speed. Re: "Now you are hoping for a miracle MHz lead with "new mask set" - talk about "Hope springs eternal!"" Nope - Intel already has the lead. The "New Mask Set" is just another development that will KEEP INTEL in the forefront. Re: "Care to guess what AMD has cooking for the same time frame as the "new mask set"?" I can't imagine - so I'll let you tell me. Paul
