Windsock Re <<And IBM's 1GHz PIII system is available today. So PB wins the contest by predicting Intel PIII would appear first in 1 GHz Systems.>> IBM system IS NOT available. I do not know where you got "Availability as of 03/08/2000: In-Stock" EDIT [I know understand that the link has changed from the time you posted] The link you posted says "call". Well I just did, THEY HAVE NONE IN STOCK!!! She said probably sometimes near the end of the month. AMD won the GHz race, it is a done deal, lets move on. Mani

Windsock, <You are correct, availability was the test. And IBM's 1GHz PIII system is available today. So PB wins the contest by predicting Intel PIII would appear first in 1 GHz Systems. commerce.www.ibm.com. IBM: "Availability as of 03/08/2000: In-Stock"> In my post to Charles, I used the words "real availability", to refer to the availability of 1GHz chips in the DIY segment (pricewatch listings). How about you participating in the contest - Poll: When do you think AMD and Intel will have at least 10 listings (in stock) of their 1GHz CPUs on Pricewatch 1GHz Athlons 1GHz PIIIs ------------ ---------- milo morai 04/10/00 07/10/00 Goutama 04/18/00 07/05/00 John Petzinger 04/21/00 06/05/00 Scot 04/24/00 Jozef Halada 05/01/00 06/19/00 Goutama
