Re: "There is nothing on my radar screen that suggests that the performance gap between the youthful Athy and the aging PWeeIII has done anything but increase since October,a trend that looks to be extendable throughout Y2000" Your radar is pointed at the ground niceguy so you won't have to see anything unpleasant. The fact is that CuMine does and always has outperformed Athlon at every clock speed and as clock speeds rise, the gap increases. You don't see it but that hardly proves anything. EP

What I am saying is that Intel scewups are a direct result of the pressure brought to bear by the Athy...There is nothing to indicate anything but relentess and ongoing pressure by Athy throughout Y2000...Hence look for additional Intel screwups throughout Y2000 as the Athy dust that the PweeIII eats chokes it out of the race! niceguy, I disagree...they were having trouble with their chipsets and Rambus well before the Athlon made its appearance. The Athlon only made things worse. ted
