Scumbria,

Re: :K7 Preview followup

Firing squad still appears to be clueless."

Could you explain why in some detail where they are clueless.

I don't know too much about benchmarking and patches etc and welsome your detailed comments.

It seemed to me they were completely backing away from their results and doing a lot of CYA.

It was encouraging also that the AMD folks suggested that their results were way base. So clearly that is good news IMHO.

The screwed up heatsinks on the voltage regulators are more worrying to me right now.

Regards,

Kash Johal

The bios date on firing squad motherboard was 3/29/99....
But they say the chip was "recent"...
Anything for advertising bucks...
