Paul, Well...AMD still has bugs in the K7 ? Didn't they get first silicon last July, 1998? Looks like AMD is scrambling just to get a "workable" K7 out by June. By the way - June is only 10 days away !"... ---- How long does it take to reasonably debug a chip after first silicon? Who knows how old or what revision Anands sample is. Doesn't really matter as look as the final is workable. Remember Toms Klamath samples? They were S L O W right up until release. Jim Jim
