Re: "And what software was being run on this chip? Did it exercise the floating point unit? What logic was carefully not being exercised? Intel demoed a "1.5GHz" Willy in February, and are now talking about introducing the chip almost a year later at 1.4GHz. This gives a good feeling for the validity of these cr@p demos"

Oh BTW, that's at least 1.4GHz. <G>
