some key AMD business tenets:

- Sell at a loss and make up for it on volume


That is not an accurate discription of AMD business.

A Thoroughbread at Quanti 2000+ is only about 1660 Mhz - right? And this is a 0.13 micron device?

No its .18. Also it runs a most software faster then an Intel P4 2ghz and a lot of software faster faster then any currently available P4.

Independent Benchmark Auditing
To ensure customer confidence in AMD benchmarking methodology, Arthur Andersen L.L.P. is independently examining the AMD Athlon™ and AMD Athlon XP processor performance benchmarks. This examination includes independent observation and tests of the system configuration, benchmark procedures and the recording of results.


---And we all know how honest ole Arthur is about "examining and recording results", don't we. Good news for AMDron I think.
