Dual Athlon in Compaq Workstation?

Over on Ace's Hardware I found this:

Arjan of Tweakers told me that he has posted an interesting (Dutch) article about AMD's future in the workstation market. A few high lights:

Compaq will launch the Compaq Workstation 400 in Q2 . Two Thunderbirds find their place in a standard Deskpro-case. Yes, that is right this new Workstation will feature the power of a Dual Athlon and DDR SDRAM. It is very likely based on the AMD760MP chpset.
Compaq is very enthusiastic about the AMD760 MP and there are plans to use this chipset even in its Server models, the ProLiant servers.
If this goes well, it might be a big breakthrough for AMD in the professional market. We will keep watching this very closely...

I can't wait!

Top 20 Hardware Products at Netlink Computer (ncix.com)

This is similar to the German List that gets posted... this is a fairly popular computer store out Vancouver BC way, and it has a following in Canada due to its online site. I thought there might be interest in seeing its Top 20 site
(yea I know.. Tony V. is going to say it isnt relevant.)

It appears to me that AMD CPUS and AMD based Motherboards come in at #1,3,4,5,6, 8 and 9 respectively.

Intel boards and CPUs are there as well (#2, #12, #13, #18, 19, #20, #22), but theP-IV is rather notable by its absence

On a side note.. the title should be more appropriately named "Top 29" as theres more on that list then 20 products:)
