Re: "AMD will do a real 1.1GHz launch next month. Compare the difference" AMD's launch is a panic response to Intel's performance lead. EP

Scumria, re: "I'm really surprised that you guys are taking this launch seriously. Intel has just started delivering 933MHz parts in volume, and now they are launching a 1.13GHz part in "limited volumes". Have you ever seen a new microprocessor launch in unlimited volumes? You, I or anyone on either thread don't have a clue how many 1.13GHz processors they can ship in the 3rd or 4th quarter. And why does it matter, they have the part, they are shipping it. And to be honest, nobody outside of these threads and a few press geeks really gives a damn. It's getting old listening to my GHz launch is better than your GHz launch. What matters is what they launch out of the fabs and through the channels, and what is accepted by the end user. I don't care if AMD launches a 10GHz if the end user is buying 900MHz. re: "The motivation behind this is transparent, and it is quite apparent that PIII is not ready for 1.1GHz production at this time." First, you are speculating, you don't know. Second and more important, who cares? John
