Paul, You don't get it - I clearly see it by Your BIASED responses.. In 386 INTC was a bit ahead. That didn't prevent AMD from entering the market succesfully. In 486 AMD profit was even higher. So the facts don't quite stand up with Your claims. This sort of bias is really striking. Apart from this You are conceding You don't know the future either. So what's Your problem then ?? CROSSY

Paul, Re: "Or are you denying it?" There is no denying the historical pattern between AMD and Intel, however, I feel there is one big difference. In the past, AMD had to WAIT for Intel to come out with a new design before they could produce their newest processor. Now that AMD has a design team that isn't dependent on reverse engineering, the future MAY be entirely different. I admit that didn't make much of a change in the pattern with the K6 because of manufacturing problems. But would you agree that there are much greater possibilities for AMD to do better in the future? ......Dave
