"My 1425MHz Tbird outruns even a 2GHz P4. "

You must feel very insecure with your AthWiper[sic] in that you had to overclock it just to compensate for its lack of performance at its rated speed.

It is an unfair comparison because by the time the Pdud got through booting Windows, it probably throttled itself back to less than 100% duty cycle to keep itself from burning up. He'll have to wait for the 130 nm version, just like INTC investors waiting for a return to profitability.

Dear Paul:

There is no 2GHZ P4 currently available. My 1.2GHz Tbird outruns all P4s that are normally clocked currently available. And Tbird has a speed grade above mine, and PC2400 DDR to boot that are both currently available.

So why don't you go cry in your beer? P4 is still slower and more expensive to boot.

Pete
