Re: Well if you're going to make up arbitrarily low clock speed numbers for a dual-core Turion, why not go with 400MHz? Dissing AMD AGAIN? You FORGOT to mention Yonah is going to top out at 333MHz! Don't forget about the 4GHz dual-core Opterons by the end of 2005. And you didn't mention AMD was picking up 100% of the Dell laptop market next quarter. Doug, you are the ultimate pessimist. Oh wait, I forgot, my 1.6GHz number (with the about "~" sign in front of it) is actually based on what AMD expects to be producing by the end of this year. Feel free to use 1.8GHz if that makes you feel better. Then I can use the more liberal "2.5GHz for Yonah" from this Inquirer article (http://www.theinquirer.net/?article=21091) instead of ~2.3GHz. It would still run 64-bit code faster than Yonah. While the 32-bit code counterpart runs even faster on a ~2.3GHz (2.5+GHz??) Yonah in most cases.
