Re: "Just to help you out with this, Athlon SPECCFP 2000 scores beat all PIII scores, even with highly optimized Intel compilers"

First off, I assume you meant SPECFP2000, not SPECCFP2000.

Having said that, I see you are still suffering from Democrats disease. The SPEC website shows nothing of the sort.

spec.org

Even though AMDites have praised the K7 for it's supposedly superior floating point unit, the 1.2GHz Athlon is easily beaten by the much slower CuMine @1GHz. 304 for Athlon, 327 for CuMine. Wait until you see P4 SPECFP scores Scumbria... I guarantee you, you're not going to like it.

Perhaps you are still in the Florida voting law mode and forgot to turn off the balony machine?
