I've been taken back by it for 5 months. I've also been astounded by AMDs horsie screwups and lack of an SMP chipset. Maybe the Athlon was just "luck" like Paul said and now it's screwups as usual for AMD. I don't think the fact that Intel's ahead on process technology should be taken as an AMD "screwup." Intel beat them to 0.18 micron by about the same margin. shrug If AMD comes out with 0.13 in six months, then they have successfully executed a normal development cycle. Intel's process technology has more than once pulled Intel through tough times... Now, as to the horsies and SMP... You may have a point there. Of course, given the choice of horse breeds and types espoused by AMD for their chips, I'm not surprised they've had issues... Fingolfen <-- proud owner of purebred Arabians...
