Maxwell, Re: "This is full of shit and has no merit what so ever." RELAX ... And here I had been counting you as one of my "enlightened" converts away from AMD. Re: "Speed depends on architecture as well as process." We have been through this before ... but, let's try one more time. The AMD K6 and Intel P5MMX benchmark very closely together (within a couple percent at the SAME frequency), thus speed differences due to frequency are related to process differences NOT architecture. If you want to continue to make your argument, please show the benchmarks between the Alpha, K6 and Intel CPU's at the SAME frequency ... or even at different frequencies. I guess this is why DEC is selling their Fab. Re: "Please try to dig into the facts before you make a conclusion. You should already have learned that back at school." The real world facts of AMD's process limitations and quarterly losses back up my analysis ... What part of "There will be significantly more losses and less revenue for this quarter" don't you understand, Maxwell. I can arrange for a tutor. <ggg> Make It So, Yousef
