Jim - off topic - Since 1995, CPQ has outperformed INTC, but that's not the point. What if the competition had chips every bit as good? (you say the AMD engine is 'inferior', everything I read says the K6 outperforms equivalent Intel chips). I guess you would still pay more for the 'Cadillac'. I guess luxury buyers wised up some years ago and switched to Lexus and others, you have yet to catch on. I have read Paul's updates on how CPQ strayed, and that's exactly the point. Everyone seems to regard not buying Intel as a crime of the highest order. I guess you are saying CPQ and IBM are selling 'inferior chips' and that consumers should not be buying them. You certainly are entitled to your opinion. John
