Pee,

You're asking if I can read? It seems to me you just looked at the "pictures" and numbers like a little boy and didn't read the article, much less the follow up that explained it.

Clearly, much as the CPUMark test had to be changed to accomodate the Celeron (which started out getting marks about half that of the K6-2 at similar speed), it will have to be changed to accomodate the K7. And the K7's FPU was demostratably better than the Xeon and PIII in real-world applications. Did you read the article?
