Ritz , re. Intel's "new" technology Wow , they released SIMD in PIII . Six months after AMD . That doesn't sound so good coming from the "technology leader", the company that has a market cap of a quarter of a trillion dollars and a book value of $25B . Their Market capln is larger than many of the world's countries. Brian

Ritz, Re: "A spokesman for AMD (Sunnyvale, Calif.) said that date didn't sound right, and would check on it." The K7 on .25um ?? ... I mean, who wants a K7 that runs at 400mhz. <ggg> Looks like AMD will have to wait until they move from their RevB FET (tm Yousef) .25um process to their .18um process later in '99. By mid-'99, Intel will be shipping their CPU's on a true .18um process ... Again, Intel is ahead of AMD in IC process technology (tm Yousef). Make It So, Yousef
