Scumbria, < gatewayatwork.com > I am very familiar with these and have been posting about Gateway's aggressiveness in the space but if you go and look under "corporate" systems under Gateway you wouldn't find a single Athlon. And other OEMs aren't even as aggressive as Gateway. Let's face it. US corporate penetration for AMD currently close to nil. Chuck

Scumbria, Something I have never understood about Willy's pipe design. It has the advantage of many small stages, which allows for high clock speeds, and yet it also double clocks some of those stages. Surely this means that it is constraining overall clock speed because of the limitations on transistor switching speeds in those double clocked stages? All things other things being equal, could you not produce a faster Willy without the double clocked stages?
