Dear chic_hearne: Let me begin by saying, I dont know sh*t about chips!! OK, got that out of the way (gg). But, your slant of that article you posted seems to me to be twisting the facts. Here is the key to the article:
Still, analysts say Intel will be able to quickly boost the P4’s performance, and Intel touts other benefits of the chip.

“It’s designed for the Internet,” said Doug Carmean, the engineer who led the Pentium 4 chip design. By this, he means it aims to work well with PCs connected to the Net. It will give Web surfers better graphics and audio performance, among other things, say Intel officials

And it goes on to describe EXACTLY why the chip is better than P3. The things that it does better is the things people like myself own a computer for. I think I want it. JDN
