TV, <That sure is what I was reading on this thread for a couple of weeks, that stuck in my mind as a strong theme.> You're not ignoring the right people then. ;-) <Not only that, it was the theme du jour for days on the TMF AMD thread as well.> So what you're saying is that your assessment of "the popular sentiment on this thread" is influenced by your excessive viewing of a completely different site? <g> JJ

Tony: That sure is what I was reading on this thread for a couple of weeks I didn't see the subject [of "getting Gateway to go 100% AMD"] pop up on this thread before today or yesterday, but then I don't read other threads all that much ;-). (cf. JJ's comments) That said, a you and Tench seem to have a serious problem distinguishing betw. "popular sentiment" and a good old-fashioned game of "what it". Virtually no one on this thread believes AMD will go with a pseudo-GHz number. Sure, there are some who believe it would be a good idea, but regardless of one's belief, it makes sense to discuss it. I don't know if going with a pseudo-GHz number is a good idea (I certainly don't think it should be called "GHz" unless it is defined as is currently the case), but that won't prevent me from discussing it. -fyo
