Constantine, Re: "did u think that they may be comparing it to a 200Mhz Tbird? The desktop pally is probably rated against a 266Mhz Tbird."

AMD model numbers are compared against the Pentium 4. I don't care if they try to deny it. There is no way that their model numbers can continue to match either core, however, since they continue to increase at a rate of 100 for every 66MHz of performance. But some of you guys will continue to deny that there are any problems, even though they are sitting right in front of your face.

Constantine, <did u think that they may be comparing it to a 200Mhz Tbird?>

I think if Intel's "two-drink minimum" marketing were anything like AMD's "down the whole keg" marketing, you'd see Northwood model numbers being compared to Willamette on PC133 SDRAM.

P.S. - T-bird is NOT the reference point for AMD's "QuantiSpeed." This is a weak defense thrown up by AMDroids in defense of a weak marketing campaign.
