Gopher & Scumbria, <<I worked on an ascii terminal for years, with quite satisfactory results. Intel should go ahead and ship P4, and not worry about this minor problem.>> <But the only benchmark the P4 excelled at was decoding streaming video. Can't really display the results on an ASCII terminal.> The P4 will excel at converting streaming video to streaming ASCII. Imagine the billions of combinations of characters that the P4 can evaluate and stream to the terminal for the optimal viewing experience. Pentium 4 has Screaming ASCII Decoding, or SAD extensions.
