| If your talking pure clock cycles, the 450MHz is 250MHz faster that
200MHz...

:D

|                   Since many of today's RISC chips are using the
instructions of
| yesterday's CISC chips, and many CISC chips are using techniques formally
| associated with RISC.

Speaking of that... Isn't a PPro and PII a RISC core with a CISC
'translator' wrapped around it?
