re: Actually with current events it's a perfect market for high volume growth. I guess you don't know much about missiles and guidance systems Au contraire. I have worked as a Flash marketing manager in a military division. Yeah, we can bomb the world back to the 16th century, but Flash useage would still be miniscule compared to high volume markets like cell phones and PDA's. Or do you plan to sell a cruise missle to every man, woman, and child in the world? Surely you don't actually believe that military apps. can begin to approach the volumes of commercial apps? Of course, AMD's Flash biz is in such disarray that I guess a single unit sold is considered a bonus.

Tom's Hardware reviews new Celeron 1.7GHz Seems to beat the Duron in most tests. Probably one of the reasons AMD is dumping the Duron by end of year? tomshardware.com "While the Celeron cannot keep apace with its older brother or the Duron at the same clock speeds, it has to run much faster by default - so it not only offers fast performance, but it fits perfectly into Intel's "clock speed sells" strategy. In the end, it seems to work out: The Celeron Willamette 1.7 GHz is currently the fastest budget CPU. At $83, it is even slightly cheaper than AMD's Duron 1300 ($84)." wbmw
