Interesting stuff from the Intel thread . . . The tone has gotten decidely more gloomly over there lately. techstocks.com techstocks.com techstocks.com It's almost fun to watch Intel fall, but let's not forget that Intel, along with IBM, Apple and Microsoft have done great things for the world via the personal computer - however I think it's time to pass the torch and see with others like AMD can achieve. No one deserves to remain in power too long in this industry - the right must be continually earned.

dief, Games will be faster with the celeron, but for most bus apps the AMD K6 will clean the clock, and when the K6 with 3D arrives the cleaning will be complete. Brand loyal customers will buy it, but will the public get sold? It all depends on marketing aspects. the screwdriver shops will not be fooled. DVD. If you can put it an onbaoard ASIC for $10 that is faster dan light on DVD expands, why buy a 400 Mhz Pentium for mucho dinero? The MMX last dice will be made soon as Intel is stopping all MMX production very soon now. is that an error? I think so as the celeron will not shoulder that load well and will get beaten by AMD items(except for marketing aspects, and they might succeed that way) Bill
