Re: "I told you in Sept. that Motorola had the K7 running in their labs at 600 MHz. In their labs since JULY. And you question 800 MHz...6 months later... Oh ye of little faith."

You guys amaze me. Talk is dirt cheap. Anyone can claim anything. Is a post all it takes to convince you that something is true? Don't tell me what is running in the lab. Tell me what's available in production volumes TODAY. You told us months ago that the K7 is very near to production. While you guys keep swapping rumors Intel is shipping high speed Xeons at ultra high margins. Not in the lab or on some futuristic unqualified experimental process, but in systems sold for cash money to real live customers. PRODUCTION PARTS. No I didn't hear it down at the pool or on the pwivwet thwead but in the press releases from Intel's CUSTOMERS... I guess if you don't have product to ship you'll ship rumors. Trouble is customers won't pay for rumors and rumors won't add cash to your bottom line.
