Re: "Isn't the Alpha slow at Windows emulation?"

Kevin was refering to the Alpha's ability to run Windows NT, so in this sense it is not emulation. Normally the term "Windows" would refer to Windows98 or even Windows 3.1 applications. It is my view that AMD's claim that the K7 will be the "fastest Windows processor" means applications running under Windows98. Time will tell if I am right or not.
