IT's THE CACHE SPEED !>>

I suggest you start your homepage educating consumers on the CACHE SPEED. Last time I was at a retailer all the PII and Celeron systems never mentioned a word on CACHE SPEED.

re : IT's THE CACHE SPEED !

But as you know most average customers buy by MHz..not if the cache speed is better or worse than the one of the competition

1)consumers see 450 mhz
2)consumers see 3dnow
3)consumers see "1 mb l2 cache"
4)consumers see "100 mhz busclock"
(5)amd has also got "mmx"

with celeron 400 :
1)consumers see 400 mhz
2)consumers see "mmx"
3)consumers see 128 kb l2 cache ("full speed")
4)consumers see 66 busclock
(5)consumers remember intel puking on socket cpu's, so why is intel
now selling celeron socket 370 cpu's ?! wasnt the socket for "bad boys" ?
(6) (positive for sales;) they see the gigantic marketing dependend "intel inside" logo

so well euhm....I think 450 K6-2 will be a good step for amd..
