Everyone is embracing 3DNOW. Too bad it won't do a darn thing to
Intel CPU. I suggest Intel get started with the program or else
3DNOW will be the standard.

Jim:

I suggest that Intel better start off with flipping foils as a start
for their 7th generation CPU. Next MF is next October 1999.

Re: "Apparently AMD made a judgement call to get the K7 to market ASAP."

Obviously!!!

Re: "If AMD can get the K7 in mass production at a time where it's significantly faster than anythng Intel has to offer the premium price they will get for it will make up some of the tester cost, I would think?"

If if if....

Based on all the signs, not just foils, my best guess is that it ain't gonna happen Jim. Why don't we hang this topic up for a while until we have some real data. Right now the foils are wearing a little thin.
