SLick - Re: " If Intel thinks that PC buyers are idiots, they are headed for trouble."

Sounds like it is you that is in big trouble !

Your AMD keeps dropping and your losses are piling up - and Intel's Pentium III is keeping you awake at night.

Relax.

KNI/Pentium III is going to be another success for Intel.

You can take that to the bank - and you know your AMD losses won't do you any good there.

Slippery - Re: " PIII adds a $500 premium because it theoretically can speed up some graphics functions. Why not buy a professional graphics card with the money instead? "

Here's a simple answer - in the form of a question.

Why don't people buy cheap, 233 MHz K6 PCs and stick "a professional graphics card with the money instead " inside these slow machines?

Even you are smart enough to figure this one out.

Paul
