RE:'I think you're giving Intel's marketing department a little too much credit here. They can't control the benchmarks any more than they can convince people to buy more $2,000 PC's." I remember when the Willamette was in the works. I continually pounded the desk about Intel was going to cook the benchmarks, twist arms to get certain benchmarks mainstream. Intel even said they were going to do it... Well, they did... Tell me, just how many people does Intel employ to this end? RE:"I think the message AMD should be conveying is obvious. But instead, they chose to wrestle with pigs." Well, clarify it for me. Jim
