CrazyMan, <I've yet to meet a user (business or personal, sophisticated or novice) who doesn't want more power under the hood. > There are at least two people on this thread who wouldn't pay for anything but a low MHz system (by low I mean relative to what is available in the market at any given point in time. <All I can say is Jerry and the fine people at AMD have delivered on their promises for the last year+.> I would say barring the Athlon AMD has not delivered on much last year (I consider Thunderbird/Duron relatively minor efforts). But that itself was good enough given what the company's valuation was. <The job AMD has done has not been perfect, but pretty dammed good given the magnitude and variability of the task.> Barring Athlon, I am hard pressed to comeup with an example of good execution (I am talking about things in production). Can you? Chuck
