Maxwell - Re: " There would be 40+ applications for 3DNOW by then."

40 ?

All of forty?

You mean only 40 game makers will have software written by Q199 for 3DNOW.

That's pitiful.

Maxwell - Re: "Thus slot 1 was a failure. "

Then why is Slot 1 outselling the K6/K6-2 by more than 4 to 1 ?

By any measure, Slot 1 is a runaway success.

Unless you characterize success as a huge loss - in which case the K6 is a huge success.

Maxwell - Re: " You will see a big performance gap between
PII and K7 at same clock speed. You'll find out on October 15."

On October 15, we will find out what AMD says the K7 is and how AMD says the K7 will perform.

Have you tested the K7 ?

Has any one else?

What system vendors will announce benchmarks of K7 system performance on that day?

Or any day?

Paul
