Elmer RE: "No K7s are shipping and as of today only 1 device has ever been seen in public. Vaporware doesn't ship in volume at a slower speed. Vaporware is vapor, like the K7."

You don't seriously believe that at this current moment, do you?

By your standards listed above, Coppermine and Merced are also vaporware.

Elmer,

Intel is shipping production PIII's at 500Mhz as we type and that is the same product that will provide 550Mhz and perhaps higher product in the near future.

It is obvious to me now. Intel is downbinning parts so they can make less money selling them.
