1100Mhz in December?

Why do you think this is bullshit?
If i were a big company and i had a badass chip that has virtually no competition
i would
a) Produce the chip so that every other company spends their time trying to reverse engineer it so theyt can catch up
b) put out slower chips just a LITTLE bit better than the competition so in tiny increments so i can milk those poor consumers for every dollar they got.

If i were intel i\'d do B
to quote Don King

\"It\'s just business baby!\"

I use IE5 on a regular basis. That\'s only because I keep forgetting to send in my Opera registration.

Note to self: Never attempt to run ie4 and netscape at the same time hehe gotta reboot damn ie can burn in hell

MR. Anon@199.236.243.136
I dont really give a crap who owns netscape/icq
they are still pretty good. And guess what
I use netscape at home 24/7 no bsod (but it does crash)
i also use ie 4 occasionally and i Get caused blah blah blah general protection fault close blah shit... there goes EXPLORER no task bar stuff... but no bsod
btw those last 2 were dedicated to you #58
hehe
silly idiot.. i havent gotten a bsod in ie or netscape.. just crashes.. and the inconvience of hittling ctrl h and going to the last page i was on
as for the OTHER aol owned stuff winamp (which sucks) i\'ve converted to sonique
http://www.sonique.com
#41 btw since your a q&a guy why dont ya find out what happens when ie4 fucks up your desktop? hehe not as bad as netscape does thats why i use it
and btw i dont wana let MICROSHAFT know whats on my hard drive/look thoughr my browser cache by using ie4/5
and why upgrade something that is working fine i\'d be happy with ie3 but win98 came wth ie4
And i found that if you have any idea on what your doing with netscape things NOT to do 1) Load multiple webpages while constantly listening to mp3s 2) (loading up porn pages that load up more browser windows are notorious for crashing it
Some times i can load up porn n multiple pages but it usually crashes in the next hour oh well

#72 apparently you have some $$ to burn.. share the wealth fool
if amd goes down we\'ll be at the hands of satan.. WINTEL (microsoft/intel comps)
you best get out of 8th grade shop class and take a college semester of econimics you\'ll know what i\'m taking bout then..
the thing is amd is counting on holding the attention of buyers with the k7 for a few year(s) till they get the k8 (64bit processor)
willimente is gona be expensive as fuck and will only be used in high end servers
ok nuff rambling

#21: SWEET! I am going to buy this computer and install that video card that does 300 fps http://3dshack.com/news_reply.x/1876/ and watch everybody EAT MY VAPOR!

:) :) :) :)

Why not just come right out and say it?

B U L L S H I T

See? Now, isn\'t that much better than that \"*cough* *cough*\" shit?

Am I the only one that thinks this is bull shit?
I\'m thinking this is a false report on the Registers
part, and that there is NOWAY a chip can be 9
months ahead of schedule.
All\'s I\'m going to say:
*COUGH* *cough* BULLSHIT *COUGH* *cough*

I hope this chip is as kick ass as they say.

If it beats out the AMD Athlon, all the better.
This will cause AMD to come back with a better chip or lower
prices. Anything for better, faster and cheaper chips.

I dont give 2 shits who makes it.

...uhh... what? Did I miss something? December?

#58, I\'ve never had a BSOD with IE either. But I do, occasionally, get the \"Internet Explorer has caused a general protection fault (or anything like that) in ... ...\" So I click close, and explorer.exe fucks up. Then I have to deal with no icons in my taskbar until I reboot. It\'s a bit of a pain in the ass. Sure I get that error with Netscape more, but at least it doesn\'t fuck up like that when I do.

#41, did it ever occur to you that maybe he came to like Netscape before AOL took over. That was the case with me, and I\'m not about to abandon a piece of software that I like using just because another company owns it now (Especially when they haven\'t done anything to really fuck it up yet)

Actually, as a reader of the register for the last year or so, for a rumor mongering site, their track record aint half so bad. They\'ve nailed all thier athlon scoops AND the i820/rambus debacle.

Besides, they article has a good point.... the athlon at 0.25 is by all indicators able to go toe to toe with intels 0.18 coppermine chips. What happens when amd shrinks down to 0.18 in the new year? I dont think the P3 has the legs to scale as well as the athlon, coppermine or not. Now to see williamette in jan/feb? That sounds a little optimisitic, but they better have something that can compete with the athlon when it shrinks to 0.18 and goes completely mainstream in 1st Q/2000.

Hey steve, any chance of making a \"The Register\"-Less Shugashack port, I mean, if I wanted to hear the bullshit from \"The Register\" I\'d go there.

First of all, I have to say that the \"paper\" version will be released in December according to the article. It will actually be a while before anything is actually released. I do believe that both Intel and AMD have warehouses sitting somewhere full of new chips. They already have working designs. They are sitting in these warehouses waiting for the other company to release a new chip, or three weeks whichever is sooner. They are just trying to make as much money from us as they can. They throw out a chip and we grab it. It will always be like this.

That\'s all I have to say about that....

#60: Sure worked on me. My attention has been grabbed.

#51:


HAHAHAHAHAH thanks for the link. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA they just dont want anyone pirating Diakatana..... HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

HAHAHHAHAHA
how much bullshit can the Register post in one day? Obviously a lot.

Competition is great but dont we always bitch about MS and their monopoly? No one gives a rats ass about Intel\'s! Imagine no amd dudes! Whatever Intel wanted to charge they could! They could say production prices went up with uhh copper so now its 150% more! We know how big of cocks intel can be (heh, MMX is cool! Get it! 12 weeks later! p2! Wheee!)!

We\'ll see when this makes it out, but this is reminding me of a different situation with Intel.

AMD was kicking Intel\'s butt in the low end market, and Intel\'s product was basically way behind at the price point. What happens, but Intel pulls out the Celeron 300A and 333, which puts them in the lead performance wise in the low end again. This chip came from off the radar. Nobody suspected they were going to release an L2 cache version of the Celeron, especially with clock speed in-die cache.

Result: Intel ships a lot of chips, stock goes up 50 % over serveral months, and AMD has to work that much harder. We get the Athlon, which again pressures Intel. Intel appears to be reacting again.

Competition is great. Long live free markets.
