Sure, but some wise men said, "there is nothing that simple on this planet". Some Athlon XP/MP are "broken", so they were labeled as XPs. In the other case it's simple marketing and business (earning more money). You can only argue about the distribution. But your are right, I won't do that. I only want to be sure that David didn't have one of the old XPs. -Dieter -- Dieter N?tzel Graduate Student, Computer Science University of Hamburg Department of Computer Science @home: Dieter.Nuetzel@hamburg.de - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
