Well, at least the retail customers will not have to worry about this potential problem.

I just checked out the local BestBuy. Not a single 1GHz Intel cPU in sight.

Compaq, HP and Micron are all advertising 1GHz AMD Athlon's.

A few months ago, HP had some 1GHz Intel P-III's, I have not seen any more since. HP then shifted to the 1Ghz Athlon's.

I guess the floodgates have yet to open.

Goutama: view this differently - they are getting away with it because its Intel.

You obviously have not followed the 'Intel Convoluted Logic 101' course ;)
