Re: "The K7 is not vaporware. It's running right now in AMDs labs and Motorolas labs on .18u and at speeds over 600MHz..."

Really? That's all?

That's only 75% the speed that Intel has already demoed in public for all to see. And on .25u. If that's the best they can do in secret on a .18u process they are in real trouble, but what else is new?

Jim, Re:The K7 is not vaporware. It's running right now in AMDs labs and Motorolas labs on .18u and at speeds over 600MHz.

Thanks for the info. I didn't mean it was literally varporware, I believe they are working on it. But when it comes to technology I discount any news about new products until they have a set near-term schedule for its release. I have not seen any such release date.
