RE:"What double-standard? Here is my exact quote: "AMD's naming system is no more meaningful than Intel's." In other words, both naming systems stink. I don't know why Jim likes one and dislikes the other." Except that Intel rode the hight Mhz for YEARS. They promoted it, marketed with it, took advantage of it. AMD had to create the quantispeed rating to mimic it. People understood it. A quick and easy way to compare chips. You can't expect people to forget about it.
