Elmer, <you are having a very difficult time communicating your ideas to others.> There are always difficulties in communication. After this experience I hope you would not promote computer speech recognition as the best way to communicate, especially new ideas... And I don't want to convince you in anything. Why should I? Are we business, brothers, or what? It is only Paul who wants to convince all here that Intel is a good buy no matter what. Therefore it is you who is having difficulties in understanding free information. I just wanted to tell you when you are wrong. That's it. To explain every "buzzword" as you put, it would require maybe a few pages of comprehensive writings, with charts and tables, animation maybe, plus undiscovered amount of reference materials due to lack of your background. I can't afford this. The problem is that I don't know what you do not know, but you hesitate to ask for clarifications. <In fact, knowledgeable industry insiders are scratching their heads wondering what you are talking about.> See, at least they are smarter than you not to declare my posts as BS. Maybe sometime they will get it... <If you put a little less effort in condescension and a little more in clarity you will do yourself a great service.> About "condescention". Judging from the tone of posts from you, Paul and Yousef, you seem to be in "condescention mode". Surely, who is talking? - puny "screwdriver" - he-he. Initially I was under impression that I am talking to peers. Therefore I tried to use concious professional terminology to communicate. I was wrong. About "little more in clarity" see above. To illustrate, just an example: in how many wasted posts I was trying to convince "Ph.D Yousef" that he is wrong in his assessment of AMD FET technology? I was trying from every end by explaining the pipeline architecture, that certain amount of gates needs to be connected in series in some stages, that single gate delay must be multiplied by their number to get the clock right, that the stage implementation is radically different on K6 and P-II processors, etc. etc. The result? Only the superficial argument about 100-X discrepancy between the speed of a single gate and the speed of overall design forced him to shut up. Now what kind of "great service" to myself are you talking about? How much more clarity and "service" do you need? I am up to think that the greatest service for myself would be to relief in few strong messages to all you tres-quad-whatever-Intelbuffoons and self-terminate myself from this board and save my time, and never visit it again, as Albert Kovalyov did. Unfortunately, my problem is the lack of high-school training in cut-downs, so I probably would not be able to express my feelings adequately enough. Only this circumstance holds me from the Web-suicide :o)
