From the Dark Side--Amazing Athlons: No Limits!

From CNet, "AMD's nonstop Athlon speed surges continue with the release of the 800-MHz CPU. We reviewed two systems carrying this chip and were blown away by top benchmark scores and a great computing experience. But these systems are more than just a processor upgrade; an entire range of quality components makes these the best-performing computers we've ever seen." [Apple needs to get out a G3/G4 speed boost soon or it will fall behind in the CPU speed race if it hasn't already.--Bill]
