RE:"Instead of worrying about WC, HC and AG, you might want to worry about Willy and SSE2. The loss of the X-box effectively kills 3D-Now, and the arrival of Willy will put AMD out of the microprocessor business in short order. Enjoy the next couple of quarters, because Athlon and AMD are going to hit the wall." I hear you...I'm worried about both slick Willys... Yes, 3DNow is the big loss for AMD in the deal...unless AMD adopts SSE which according to Paul they have already incorporated parts of into 3DNOW2. We both know Intel wanted the xbox as a way of dominating a standard and shuting out competition...at whatever the cost. Not the first time. Jim
