Paul,

There is nothing wrong with Xeon servers other than the cost of the CPUs. Compaq will be able to build higher performance Alpha boxes at much lower cost however.

Compaq will also be able to easily convert to K-7 parts because of the Alpha bus. More bad news for Intel.

Paul and all,
I have sinned! In two more days the AMD earnings will be released, and at the Church of Intel I prayed for AMD earnings to be 29c per share instead of the predicted 19c per share.

Please forgive my sinful ways,
humble carl
