niceguy,

My trip to Fry's yesterday produced the same data. Athlon owns the high end (700+ MHz.) PIII owns the midrange (600 MHz.) K6 and Celeron split the entry level (500 MHz.)

High end PIII's are all but invisible.

Re: "Comment: You've been telling me that since October...but I still haven't seen evidence of any flood of PWeeIII 733's and above at retail...despite both yours and Pat Gelsinger"s, (who you have chosen to quote on the subject),repeated reassurances to the contrary since October. Isn't this repitition, in the face of contrary evidence, a sure sign of someone having bumpeded their head?"

NiceGuy once again you have things mixed up. You are misquoting me o much I'll have to start calling you Mani.

First off, I quoted Pat Gelsinger as saying the CuMine would be neck and neck with Athlon in INT performance and within a few % in FP. That proved correct and those who called me a liar were proven to be idiots.

Secondly, I have not referred to retail only volumes. Third, you continue to claim that CuMine has hit a wall at 733MHz and you simply don't know wht you are talking about, so maybe I'll have to start calling you hmaly instead.
