Re: "As we all know, the L2 of the K7 will be the same as that of the PII and the system bus will be even faster."

As we all know? How do we know that Kevin? Where did AMD say that? They said they will have a BSB. They didn't say how wide or how fast.
If AMD has a half speed - half width BSB will it be as fast as Intel's higher frequency, full corespeed, wider bus, onboard L2 Xeon systems slated for next year?
