Now we have May and G none of the 1GHz Alpha or EV68 is at the horizon. It's a long time ago, J that we did see a new one Alpha CPU (higher clockrate or next generation).E Years before, we could see 400MHz, a few month later 500MHz and a few B month later 600MHz. About one year after the last new Alpha chip IF think the time is prepared (in German reif?) to get a new one chip. InD case of this I did write, we will wait. It was not the mention, waitD a few weeks and you will get a better one. My problem is, that I didE see a performance growth with the Intel and AMD chips within the last F six month (500MHz --> 1000MHz). This performance growth was one of theG arguments to kill NT for Alpha. If Alpha had been growth as well as the D Intel or AMD chips, Compaq could not say, that the fastest SAP node, is an eight way Proliant.    Regards Rudolf Wingert   ------------------------------  % Date: Fri, 28 Apr 2000 23:23:25 -0400 0 From: JF Mezei <jfmezei.spamnot@vl.videotron.ca># Subject: Re: And they wonder why !! . Message-ID: <390A55AA.746B445@vl.videotron.ca>   "Main, Kerry" wrote:I > As a fyi, keep in mind that at the present time, the 1Ghz x86 boxes are & > WS/desktop single cpu config's only.  M Doesn't matter.
