Elmer - RE: "So should we interpret your response to mean that you expect or at least believe that AMD is claiming the K7 will out perform Alphas?"

Isn't the Alpha slow at Windows emulation?

Re: "So should we interpret your response to mean that you expect or at least believe that AMD is claiming the K7 will out perform Alphas?"

No. Just that you can spin in both directions, if you so choose.

If you had though of this earlier, you would have been trumpeting that "AMD is full of it, claiming the K7 will outperform the Alpha!" That's what you'd say to me if I had answered your question "yes".

So in your opinion, AMD is damned if they do, damned if they don't. The only certainty is that you'll spin whatever they say into more FUD. I say let's wait for the benchmarks.
