Never one to pull their punches, The Register reports that Athlon beats P4 in urinating contest

The latest reports from system builders putting together the first Pentium 4 systems look very encouraging - for AMD.

A leading European PC maker confided to The Reg yesterday:

"If they think this compares to Athlon they are joking. At 1.5GHz the P4 is outperformed by a PIII 933, never mind an Athlon 1GHz which urinates in rather copious quantities over the oversized, overcomplicated piece of silicon."

Just another example of the myth of clock-rate as a measure of performance.
