Sad, but true..

I complain about the Alpha murder, and Intels marketing machine, but poeople are most often like cattle or horses - flaps on their eyes direct them to the every-day crap product advertised on TV. If only Compaq wouldn't buy DEC and than merge with HP, selling it off to Intel....who took 10 years to understand that Alpha from 10 years back is superior to their current products... and 10 years back I still had a Pentium 120Mhz..compare it to what average Joe has in his PC today.. ;-(

What? R U Cray-Z, Novakovic?

who's gonna tell you when
it's too late
who's gonna tell you things
aren't so great
you can't go on
thinking nothing's wrong
who's gonna drive you home tonight

who's gonna pick you up
when you fall
who's gonna hang it up
when you call
who's gonna pay attention
to your dreams
who's gonna plug their ears
when you scream

you can't go on
thinking nothing's wrong
who's gonna drive you home tonight

who's gonna hold you down
when you shake
who's gonna come around
when you break

Making Whirlwind in Vacume

Nebojsa, Your too Whirlwind without enough specifics. Heres Ultie Advanced imagineation Victors:

Alpha was 1998, mainly promoted due to onboard refrigerator, it was so HOT. Alpha is also developement stage & many a company has adopted name, meaningless number.

Mainly your comparing 5 years ago, Pent.IV & Bart.on to today. with hopes till better skies being quashed? I believe in SSE5, whatever it is & I feel every High Speed Single Core unit(5 y.o) should be Trashed Heaped. End of story.

Machines are moe stable today than ever & more complexity takes time. Several Years just to get thru proprititary ownsership to public tests, then little longer to retail. Its Compound thing, More there is, faster change is made & better it gets,sooner.
Now ask Me about Weather?Anyone?
