Joemac,

I remember it and well.

And note how Intell has slowed release of new CPU's in thelast 6-8 months. They are all ready starting the SOS. If AMD fails we will be back to 1-2 new chips per year, at prices fixed by Intell due to no competition.

And don't think they would have a new competitor any time soon.

With Intells market position no other company is going to step in.
