500/1-001 - Main Auditorium (CERN)

A brief review is given of the role of the top quark in the Standard Model, and of the history of searches for top. A measurement of the ttbar cross section is presented based on 126 pb^-1 of Run II data collected with the CDF detector; the measurement is compared to results from other decay channels and from the D0 experiment.
