Ohh please. At this point even the AMD crowd had to realize that the Athlon XP is dead. As hard as it is to let go, let go. I love my Pentium 3 too before I got my Pentium 4. The only problem here is that the AMD groupies have no Athlon 64 as of yet. Not that I care much for the 64-bit part, but surely it will be more contemporary by incorporating SSE-2 as well as other advancements. Marketing is marketing, but for the love of god let the Athlon XP die in peace. It earned it.
