Kevin, >Re: Is it a 450 MHz device? >If it is, it's not a sham--anyway, it's a foregone conclusion at >this point that AMD will produce these chips, so why continue to cry >about it? Paul is crying about it because AMD will have caught up Intel in the speed race. At 450 Mhz, and even with L2 cache running at 100Mhz, and the 100Mhz system bus the 450 outperforms the Celery significantly. Perhaps when intel learns to up the system bus to 100Mhz, this could cause AMD some problems at the low end. Unfortunately for Paul the K-3 is around the corner with cache running at FULL SPEED. Oh well, Paul and Intel are going to have to go back to the drawing board, whining and cursing and complaining all the way. Regards, Kash
