PB, RE:"One feature, that has been greeted with enthusiasm is the Serial ID feature, available only on the PIII" The public is being very passive about the CPU-ID. After all they voted in Clinton twice. They think, no problem we can turn it off. A couple of years from now, listen to them scream when Microsoft and a bunch of other software vendors tell them to "turn in on". Now, PB, tell us again why a business needs a Pentium III rather than a Celeron or a K6 for that matter. Gamers can't afford Pentium IIIs. What else is there? Virtuosa Gold and Naturally speaking?
