Elmer: I don't know what your point is anymore or what point you think I made that's you're arguing with. You lambasted Gopher for (allegedly) buying into the Hammer hype&#133 all the while you are doing the same with the McKinley hype&#133 and just like you did with the P4 hype.

"AMD's ability to develop and manufacture products is not aligned with their ability to hype." That's right. Intel's ability to hype is unsurpassed, that's for sure. "Netburst", marketing megahertz, streaming-ripping applications, tada-tada-tune every 10 minutes on TV, all are very aligned. No contest. - Ali
