S, >Too bad that they can't match Athlon clock for clock. 1000 MHz = 1000 MHz most places in the universe. Athlon is dead when Willy ramps up. Recently, I've been seeing some indications that AMD's next generation CPU may be quite competitive. Do we have to run through the foils scene all over again?

By next month, AMD will own the fastest desktop systems in all categories. Let's see about that. Tony
