Albert, <Would it sound better for intel that it's next generation chip operating at 4GHz outperform competitors operating at 1/3 frequency by 10%? That would be a great help to amd's performance rating campaign.> You were speculating that Intel will grossly inflate clock speeds over actual performance (e.g. your crack about 20 GHz processors only doing real work every 10th clock). My point is that Intel already has the opportunity to exaggerate the advertised clock speed, but chooses not to. By the way, if Northwood has better IPC than Willamette, do you think Intel should resort to using "quantispeed"? What about McKinley vs. Itanium? Tenchusatsu
