Scumbria - <That PIII runs at 1GHz? That Willamette will run twice as fast as K7?>

Barrett didn't say these things. Your blessed Register did.

As for Merced sampling soon, why wouldn't you believe that? I do.

Scumbria, Re: Barrett

>Barrett is the guy who says a PII is worth three times as much
>as a Celeron?
I missed this.

>That Merced will be sampling soon?
Yes. according to the press report.

>That PIII runs at 1GHz?
Yes. again according to the press, he demonstrated that but no
detail is mentioned.

>That Willamette will run twice as fast as K7?
I don't know. Seems that I missed this, where can I find it ?

But again, what is your point ?

BTW, you seem to forget the other part of the question, Sanders :-)

Yeah, we forgot, Barrett is supposed to sell the Pentium II at prices much lower than the market decides.

<That Merced will be sampling soon?>

Yeah, so? Do you know when Merced will sample, cause Barrett does (and I might, too).

<That PIII runs at 1GHz?>

When did Barrett say this? Even Intel admitted that this was a "gee whiz" demo with special cooling.

<That Willamette will run twice as fast as K7?>

When did Barrett say this? And I thought you were posting links to the YUK Register just to annoy us. I didn't know you actually believed that, er, crap.

And don't get me started on Jerry "We're not a charity, though we try to be" Sanders!
