Paul, Re: AMDroid imagination of typical customer: " OH OH OH _ there are SO MANY Intel-based products to choose from - inexpensive, moderatley expensive and very expensive as well as modest performance - average performance and the highest performance !!"" OH OH OH - My Head is swimming !!! I'll just by an AThWIper system instead - whatever that is!!" Paul, the formula is quite simply, really. They have a predefined conclusion, and whatever happens to back that conclusion up becomes fact. End of story. wbmw

Paul, ok, where did I even suggest that AMD would get an advantage out of the situation? I was merely stating a fact. Even someone like me, experienced with hardware, would have a hard time choosing a product. I think the major confusion will arise from the fact that banias might be clocked equally or higher than the p4 and may even have higher IPC. ( just a guess ). C
