wbmw,

Megahertz is not accurate. Yet, when AMD puts out a model number that "looks" like megahertz, lots of people like to call *that* accurate. I wouldn't, however.

Ok, so let's just say:

MHz < Quantihertz < ideal measure of performance

I am not claiming that

QuantiHertz = ideal measure of performance

It is just obvious to me that with 2 processors that are now mainstream (AXP and P4) QuantHertz rating of Athlon chips is better than measure than MHz, given the fact that Intel P4 is the dominant part, and AMD being Avis or Pepsi of the CPU business competes with P4.
