Tony, Glen Henry was his desperate, sardonic self on the podium this year. He talked about his wife who doesn't need more than 240MHz (and who refuses an upgrade), while his spoiled 21-year old son (those were his words ;) likes film making, and opts for a 900MHz Pentium III. Himself, who is somewhere in the middle, does great with a C3 at 800MHz. The moral of this Goldilocks story is that 80%+ of the market can make due with what VIA has to offer.

By the way, he said that Centaur's compute farm was being run entirely on Pentium 4 systems. Go figure. <g>
