AMD/Intel Commentary -- 8:49 am CST, Update by The Master

Okay, I've seen about 10 million reviews of the new Intel Coppermine P3 chips, and the incredible Mhz ratings (800. 800?!?). Now, what boggles my mind is they were REAL slow to release these until AMD showed up at the party with the Athlon. And now Intel feels threatened. Ya know, Intel, maybe you should ALLOW YOUR COMPETITION TO BREATH!!! THE SHERMAN ACT CAN BE APPLIED TO YOU TOO!

And to Microsoft: What's wrong with being 5 little MicroSofts? So, you'll be 5 MONOPOLIES INSTEAD OF ONE! WHAT'S WRONG WITH THAT?!?

Okay, I feel a little better now. Personally, I do like a lot of M$'s products. And Intel's. But they have to realize that being the king in this industry means you have to let the competition wiggle a little, or else the US government will kill you. IBM paid the price of monopoly in the 50's. Not worth the struggle if you ask me.
