Cirruslvr,

<Is today the first day you saw 950MHz? AMD's moving up the MHz so fast Gateway's ads can't keep up. >

Actually the SB line went to 950 the day 1.2G was announced. The consumer line seems to be catching up just now.

<I still see online banners advertising an 850MHz Athlon in their $1299 system!>

That is mildly amusing/annoying. More than that I am a little bothered that no one outside Gateway is able to keep pace with the MHz ramp. AMD really needs more direct players to ramp products this fast.

<GHz for the masses is almost here. What will Mikey Dell do when this happens?>

Dell may turn out be a great case study very soon if the "only Intel CPUs" policy stays.

Chuck

Mikey D. will unleash the Mhz of the P4 and pray he can still sell a P3...
