Re: "The ability to bring up even one K7 system would depend on having a chipset." Yes that's right, but in an act of desperation they could have used a under clocked standard Aplha chipset with no L2 Cache. That would allow them to run a demo of Godzilla but not much more. Of course they wouldn't want to show that to anyone but a small select group of Jerry butt smoochers. Certainly not a public demonstration. Funny how Intel demoed a 1 Ghz PIII to a group of 1500 industry developers. They weren't scared to let the world see what they had. What does that tell you? EP
