Blow it out your Wazoo Dan3 - Re: "The Pentium 4 costs more to FAB in the first place because it's so big, and it will have to use a new, relatively untried chipset and motherboard because Intel is going through another of its semi-annual socket changes" Gee...when AMD introduced the SMP AThWiper eMPty that required a TOTALLY BRAND NEW UNTRIED chip set and a BRAND NW motherboard - you just blew in here and told us all how Intel's server business would be flattened !! Why doesn't your STUPID IGNORANT AMDroid logic apply to TOTALLY BRAND NEW UNTRIED AMD chip sets and motherboards - but only to new Intel chip sets and motherboards?

Dan, here's an article you will definitely like: dailynews.yahoo.com Steve Jobs is trying to evangelize the message that MHz doesn't matter. They even accompanied their message with "demos" of Power Macs running at 867 MHz supposedly outperforming Pentium 4 machines running at higher clock speeds. Of course, Steve Jobs is just as much of a huckster as Jerry Sanders, but I doubt that matters to either the Mac fanatics or the AMDroids. Both cults share many similarities. Tenchusatsu
