PowerNow is a loudly advertised feature, that kicks in when you don't need the processor power, unlike the P4 thermal circuit, which kicks in when you do. Gee... Doug, could you possibly simplify this explanation a bit so investors on this thread could more easily understand??? THE WATSONYOUTH

dougSF30, Re: PowerNow is a loudly advertised feature, that kicks in when you don't need the processor power, unlike the P4 thermal circuit, which kicks in when you do. Do you think that is a bit complicated to explain? I thought the original accusation was simply 'since P4 cannot operate at published speed at all time, it is misleading or fraud' so if Intel loudly advertised the feature that P4 has a safety net feature to prevent the CPU from burning, it will be no fraud ?
