McMannis - re: " the 400 will sell well...too well right now as it seems they can't make enough. "

Apparently Intel CAN MAKE 400 Mhz parts but CAN'T MAKE ENOUGH.

AMD has only one customer - COmpaq - for the 400 MHz K6-2 and doesn't seem to be able to supply others.

Of course, Compaq buys from BOTH AMD and Intel.

Regarding Winstone 99/98/97 - these are benchmarks from Ziff Davis, are they not?

Jim,

Re: "Seems like every year with a new Winstone it seems to favor Intel chips."

Sounds like "sour grapes", Jim ... I'm sure if the result had been the opposite,
the "benchmarks" would have been "perfect". <ggg>

Make It So,
Yousef
