RDM - RE: "Surely you are aware that the first prototypes, even from Intel, of a major new design have many things that do not work."

How can you he when Intel hasn't had a major new design is quite some time, nor will they until late this year or next year.

Re: "Why is the K7 not shipping today? What is a Q/A cycle for? Surely you are aware that the first prototypes, even from Intel, of a major new design have many things that do not work. "
