Tench, RE:"Come on, Pete. AMD has long been the leader in phantom and vapor launches. And they definitely haven't changed their ways despite their successes with Athlon. It's unfortunate that Intel is now doing the same, but the notion that AMD is now "trying the old Intel way" is a bunch of baloney." Tench, this is for you... The guys trying to catch up in the Mhz race are much more likely do phantom launches....yet another twist on MHZ sells (TM-McMannis)<G>

Dear Tench: AMD has not launched any CPU that was not available in the DIY market for over 4 months going on five, and then launching another CPU before the first was in the DIY market. Durons have been available in the DIY markets in stock for over a month (10 pages worth). Socket 462 motherboards have been available as well (6 pages worth). There are even whole Duron systems available in the DIY market (3 pages worth). I have even seen Duron 750 listed and its not even announced yet. But, even 933 P3 is not available in the same volume (3 pages worth on CPUs). Intel is worse than old AMD. Pete
