Tony, You're not paying attention. My sixth grade teacher told me that too. Intel is not embellishing the PII any more. PII is Intel's mainstream processor and will continue to be so for some time now. K6-2 is AMD's mainstream processor, and it runs at higher MHz than Intel's equivalent. Please don't try to blame me for Intel's strategic errors. Thread Moron (suffering from ADD)

re: "The PIII will be at 550 MHz pdq, you know, and without any tricks." Given their most recent track record, that will be refreshing. You know: pIII slower clock for clock than pII but higher in cost to anyone stupid enough to buy one, cELERON II over 90% of the speed of pIII but 25% of the price of a pII, etc. No stupid iNTEL tricks would be refreshing. Is not trick the word that a whore uses to describe what she does to or for her/his customer for what sometimes turns out to be outrageous pricing. HMMMMM? Another parallel. DARBES
