Ted asked: Isn't that earlier than you expected? By about a month ,, yes.. but ihas to happen first :). However... here's something to think about.. AMDzone referred to JC's article and ended with two words, "No Comment" More like.. "We arent allowed to comment due to NDA" I have a 60-40 feeling it will be indeed released Monday.

"AMD-760 DDR AND 266 MHZ FSB APPARENTLY GOING TO BE RELEASED MONDAY" If 1.2 Mhz announcement made no difference to AMD's price, I don't know why this would. Now if it gets them some corporate wins, that would be exciting. With the news that the PIV is going to be priced around $2K with limited RDRAM memory, they can hurt AMD without hurting themselves as these systems won't be going to the corporate space. Seems like a great strategy on Intel's part. Still not gonna buy Intel, but it is a good approach. Jeff

Ted - I noticed that AMD has now posted SPEC2000FP scores for the 1.2GHz AThlon. Needless to say it still trails the 1GHz CuMine and it's superior FP capability. AMD is still too ashamed to post the SPECINT2000 scores. So why do they bother posting losing FP scores? spec.org If they're too ashamed to be compared to CuMine now, one can only wonder what they will do when P4 scores come out.... EP
