Re: Why bother with a confusing PR style system. Wouldn't it be simpler for AMD to call a 1.667 GHz Athlon a 15 GOS (Giga Operations per Second) processor

Quite possibly. And probably easier to defend from the inevitable critics.

I just hope AMD marketing doesn't continue to simply sit there, doing nothing.

Regards,

Dan

Dale and Dan, it's very humorous to see you guys discussing new ways to label the performance of processors. While you're at it, you should also get Steve Jobs to help you. I've seen him come up with whoppers when it comes to performance comparisons, and the Apple fanatics took it hook, line, and sinker.
