Scumbria,

re: "P4 is too big, and the performance for most apps is lower than Athlon."

Won't P4 be getting smaller on .13? Didn't most new generation processors come out in a larger size, including Athlon? And are applications being written that are optimized for P4?

re: "PIII is too slow, and will soon be obsolete."

Isn't P3 going to .13 also? And will P3 be too slow when it moves to the low end?

It seems to be that Intel roadmap is always a work in progress. If you photograph their product line-up, at any one point in time, you can find holes. The same may be true for AMD, or are there no holes in AMD's product line?

I think the investment question is where each company will be six-twelve months out.

John
