Scumbria - < 0.25u at 600 MHz in a few weeks. It is going to be difficult for Intel to keep up with K7 MHz.> Intel will keep up, and won't have a "hard time". Prediction. PB

Scumbria - " AMD is introducing a brand new design in 0.25u at 600 MHz in a few weeks. It is going to be difficult for Intel to keep up with K7 MHz." Thanks for the laugh this morning. Another of AMD's "missing in action" chips. Big announcement, delayed launch, no production. Will be a real Intel-killer, no doubt about it. Selling all my INTC this morning, loading up on AMD. You doing the same??? Joe

<AMD is introducing a brand new design in 0.25u at 600 MHz in a few weeks. It is going to be difficult for Intel to keep up with K7 MHz.> That's great! Introduce at 600 MHz, even if those parts won't be available until Thanksgiving! Why didn't I think of that? It's the same song and dance. AMD could say in June, "Yeah, we have 600 MHz parts available," but they won't say when the average consumer can get his or her hands on one. Even reporters won't know; at least reporters knew when PC's with Whitney chipsets will be available to the public. Doesn't it remind you of your favorite politician? Tenchusatsu
