Beamer - Re: "Paul, I agree that instabilities on Windows XP really puts AMD at a disadvantage. AMD was counting on aggressively selling up with Windows XP, and already they are starting out on the defensive" I can't wait for Intel and MICROSOFT to put an ad in the Wall Street Journal - referencing the TGH AthWiper eXPloder INSTABILITY article. The buying public needs to be INFORMED about the sorry state of AMD-based machines - especially under Windows XP. After all - this could damage Microsoft's reputation !!! Paul

Re: I agree that instabilities on Windows Well, we've seen data corruption from PIII 1.13GHZ, Xeon 900MHX and now the Itanium, so maybe you should be a little more worried about $5,000 to $100,000 production systems from Intel quietly corrupting data than Tom managing to lock up his test PC by entering wrong information into the bios.
