As an end-user I would rather buy a cheap 300 MHz cpu witch is upgradable, (and faster than other 300 MHz cpu's) than an expansive 300 witch has "big brothers"..... I don't think it really matters or not wether Intel has got more MHz. It's not quantity we are talking about, it's quality witch (Should) matter. Alpha Dec has been around a GIGAhertz (1000 MHz) for a while, but Intel would 'nt care less, because they can't compete anyhow in the high-end server market. I don't think that the aim of AMD is killing high-end pII's (wich are not sold as much as 300 MHz pII or 333's..), but to eliminate the Johny-average-city-guy who has interest in a good,fast and affordable mid-class cpu, from buying Intel. I found that at least in Europe, the most sold PII are the 300 and 333's. Especially the 300's. And AMD also has those cpu's available right now, for quite a bit cheaper.
