Jim, Re: "...what would Intel use liquid cooling on?" Looks like you and AMD will need the "liquid cooling". <ggg> IBM Drops AMD Processors From PCs" "NEW YORK (AP) - In a cost-cutting move, IBM Corp. has stopped selling desktop PCs in the United States with Advanced Micro Devices Inc.'s (AMD - news) microprocessors and may also drop AMD processors from its computers sold in Asia. IBM's U.S. desktops will now carry only Intel Corp.'s (INTC - news) processors, said Ray Gorman, spokesman for IBM's PC division. By dropping one chip platform, IBM hopes to cut some of its manufacturing expenses, Gorman said. ``With the low margins on PCs, it doesn't make sense for us to invest in two sets of chip platforms,'' Gorman said." I wonder how many other OEM's will come to this same conclusion ?? Maybe AMD is headed back to "single digits" (TM StockMan).?? Make It So, Yousef
