"I will wait for the superior 1 GHz Coppermine with a full speed L2 cache"

You will be waiting quite a time for one (at least from the date of your order to when Dell ships it). I bet you'll also be paying a lot more for it, over $1,000 more than a similar system offered by Gateway which more than offsets the cache issue. AMD is giving Intel the same treatment it received from Intel two years ago. As an AMD shareholder, what is your projection for AMD's year 2000 revenues? I bet they'll achieve $5.5 billion.

Paulie, Paulie, Paulie...

Re: ùI will wait for the superior 1 GHz Coppermine with a full speed L2 cache - and one that doesn't require a Lennox Air Conditioner to cool.ï

Comment: Hope you donït have to wait as long as it took them to get 733ïs to retail...Weïll all be dinosaurs by that time if there is straight line correlation between INTC time to retail market and MHz increment!

P.S. Did you convert your INTC to AMD or did you miss the 15% move in AMD in one day, March 06, 2000, an AMD Historic Date??? Also, how many new highs was that for INTC since Novemer??? PweePaulie, have you prepared yourself for the NEW ORDER???

Paul,

I will wait for the superior 1 GHz Coppermine with a full speed L2 cache

While you wait, don't forget to breathe - as in don't hold your breath. We wouldn't want to lose you.

PS: It looks like you took my prescription. You mental state is showing improvements. Only 2 capitalized words, and only 5 exclamation points. Maybe we just need to increase the dosage a bit.

RE: <Gateway is selling...>

By the way Paul what 1GHz solutions are any of the OEMs selling for Intel? I heard that Dell is announcing soon but "have no immediate plans to ship" When do those great "limited edition" Coppermines go on sale? You know, the ones that DO run on modified motherboards with modified heatsinks.
