Athlon thrashes P4, Intel in denial

Got this from our affliates, geeknews:

I noticed this story at AMD Zone and I thought you might want to read it. After reading the comparison on CRN I wasn't
really surprised. They show SySMark scores in Windows 98SE with PC133 and DDR RAM with well done graphs, Intel has
this to say about the bad scores:

Intel said the Pentium 4 processor was designed to speed through compute-intensive applications such as encoding, which
leave users waiting at an hourglass prompt unlike business applications which execute their simple functions rapidly enough for
end users.

So.. maybe Intel should go into the paperweight biz now? Also AMD Zone's Chris Tom has submitted his scores for
ScienceMark to JC's database, he got a 1.2Ghz Athlon up past 1.4Ghz.
