...and so what if AMD is comparing the AthlonXP to the P4's with the PR numbers? If Joe puplic buys a machine with a 2000+ AthlonXP instead of that 2.0Ghz P4A machine he was looking at he will at least be getting either equal or greater performance in all but a few instances. However I do think that the buyer should first be educated to the fact that 2000+ does not mean 2.0Ghz. Of the machine stickers I've seen for Athlon based systems they state both the PR number and actual speed so I don't think it should be much of problem.
