<What edge?>

The only one that matter in this business - MHz.

<You keep postulating non-existent AMD chips will outperform Intel's existing chips.>

I ain't postulating anything. If you just a little less dense you would have noticed it too. Now, regardless, since when are you concerned about "exisitng chips"? Such considerations never seemed to come across to you and didn't stop you from talking about 800 PIIIs in December and IG PIIIs a few weeks back (let alone Wilamette). Why is vaporware bothering you now?

<Is AMD in volume production of these non-existent chips?>

If AMD wants to pull an Intel, they could have announced "limited production" but doesn't look like the AMD management is that desperate.

Now if Intel had some PIII 1Gs without any fans like you thought they did, that would help Intel keep the lead.
