McMannis - Re: "Come on Paul, the K6-2-Gateway problem was a "slow boot" not a "non boot" due to a specially made Microstar motherboard that needed a BIOS tweak. It was fixed with a BIOS flash."

Oh.

That made the AMD chip good!

How much did that foobar cost Gateway?

They completely stopped Kmart 62 shipments for a week or two.

Jim,

At times you embelish your posts with FUD.

It has been about 2 months since I've seen anything except FUD from Paul. The approach of K7 seems to have him very agitated.

Jim - RE: "At times you embelish your posts with FUD."

I think the amount of Paul's FUD is directly proportional to his fear of the K7.

Paul has posted a lot of FUD on the thread lately.

Make your own conclusion! ;)
