Kevin - Re: " Personally, I suggest you stop whining about the whole thing and move on with your life. " Since you have posted three messages about this, IT IS YOU that is DOING THE WHINING. Take your OWN ADVICE - and move on. Since the Kmart 63's are all hiding in the bushes, it's a moot point. Paul

Kevin - Re: " ..thinking about creative ways to explain away the K7 benchmarks you'll see shortly--you know, the ones where not only the integer but also the FPU performance crushes that of any Intel core." Crushes that of any INTEL CORE ? Does THIS sound like a K7 CRUSH ? Message 9140643 "how 'bout this, the K7 is definitely performing, clock for clock, as fast as an Intel Pentium II/III processor in Business Applications and in Games? " The desKtop 7 as fast as an EXISTING Pentium II/III ? Wooooooohhhhhhh - that ought to sell a lot of chips! Sounds like your estimation of the desKtop 7 performance just got CRUSHED ! Paul

<Spend some time thinking about creative ways to explain away the K7 benchmarks you'll see shortly--you know, the ones where not only the integer but also the FPU performance crushes that of any Intel core.> Kevin, you might have to spend some time thinking about creative ways to explain away Anand's little blurb here: Hmm...ok, how 'bout this, the K7 is definitely performing, clock for clock, as fast as an Intel Pentium II/III processor in Business Applications and in Games? Seems like we'll be debating over the definition of the prepositional phrase "as fast as." ;-) Tenchusatsu
