Elmer - RE: "I haven't predicted anything for SPEC scores."

No, you haven't predicted anything. But you seem confident about them.

". I will say the P4 scores will be better than the P3 scores. Both FP and INT."

I would hope so! The P4 has a 500, maybe 600, MHz speed advantage!

"When you ask to compare P4 with other processors it becomes a problem of which apps do you compare? What apps do P4 and SPARC have in common? P4 and RS6000?"

Sorry, I meant other X86 processors which means Athlon and PIII.

"The benchmarks you will see P4 suffer at are the ones that measure yesterday's computing experience."

Ahh, so running Windows is "yesterday's computing experience"? It seems as if you're learning from the democrats and making statements that fit how you want them to.
