Gopher - 500 K7 Really, this is just my guess. I don't really know. I am making this guess from the snippets of information available. But you make a salient point if the release speed is less than PIII. You are responding to this message from Gopher Broke on Apr 15 1999 7:02PM EST 500MHz would be a huge mistake. Even if it outperformed on all benchmarks it would still be perceived as slower. Better to take in a 600 MHz clock and multiply by 5/6 internally! Would that be "cheating" if it still performed better than a PIII 550? PB
