Pete, since I wasn't around for the TBird/Duron launch, did anyone annouce systems using the chips? I would hope they would come out with a new line which exclusively use socketed Athlon chips (Duron or TBird). Otherwise, the consumer wouldn't know if their Compaq or HP is using a Tbird or an original Athlon. Am I the only one who is a little concerned that AMD did not announce any higher speed grades? Or is AMD just waiting for better availability of GHz PIII's to drop the next bomb? Petz
