MG, re: The faster and faster processors no longer contribute much to a "better user experience." You are taking a still photograph of an event that is in motion. And if you had frozen time anywhere in the past 10 years, it would look as if the current PC was all that anyone would ever need. Although many before you have said the same thing you are saying, they have all been wrong so far. Maybe you are right, we have built all the demanding PC applications we will ever need. So what I'm typing on right now is the end game, there will be no more innovation. I doubt it. John

Michael, Don't disagree. AMD will hurt a lot faster and a lot quicker than Intel. But by focusing on AMD I think a lot of people on this board are missing the point, which I will state again: The biggest competition today is the processor that's already on my desk. It sounds like we're just talking about two different subjects (and that we probably agree on both). The original conversation was a discussion about Jerry Sanders and how well he'd do in his effort to keep his job, which is why it was focused on AMD. The expected growth of the processor segment is certainly a valid (more valid?) topic of conversation <G>. FWIW, Dave
