IBM demonstrated its 1.1GHz 750 at the same PC Expo that Alpha and Samsung
demonstrated their 1GHz processor.

In contrast to the 1GHz computers Intel and AMD demonstrated, the G3 nor
the Alpha needed a special deticated heating system.

The 1.1GHz G3 heated to a max of 25C.  A small heatsink was the only thing
needed.

Both IBM and Alpha&Samsung will have their 64bit GHz chips out by 2000 at
the latest.  Intel is shooting for a deadline of 2001 on their 1GHz
processor, by that time is projected that there will already be chips in
the 2-3GHz range
