Gerald,

How convenient that you try and read between the lines and forget the important stuff.. Did I ever say AMD would make money or improve yields in that post... I don't think so. Did I ever say that Segas or Nintendos were the only answer NO. I was only saying that they are competition.

Geeze some of you INtel people really live in a close world, seeming to think that everything has to be your way. Kinda sounds like the Romans, Greeks, etc.

Did I say people won't play games on a PII. NOPE. I just said there were other alternatives, some of which ofter a better price/performance ratio.

And I note how you COMPLETELY IGNORED my statements about video cards and the like.. very convenient. Boy I wish I could be as closed minded as some of you folks, it sure would make life a lot simpler.

Steve

Hell, if NASA can land a man on the moon with on-board computers having less power than in my dear old departed Pinecomm 8088 then why would anyone need anything faster?

Because the NASA engineers were better, or more efficient, programmers that the ones at MSFT.
