Chipguy, Re: I think if you offered Intel execs a choice between
winning Red Storm or the SGI Altix they would pick
the Altix in a heartbeat. Over 300 systems/5000 I2s
sold by 3Q03 and still rising like a rocket.
We're not talking about executives here. These are amateur AMD investors, if that. The goal is to win benchmarks, not make money, and that makes Red Storm the more appealing choice.
