Gopher, Re: "I don't accept your argument that you can't debug hardware problems on shipping product. It is just more effort. You could - take the symptoms/apps and try and repro the problem in the lab - get the customer to ship the problem machine to you - take your equipment on-site." This is already done with OEM collaboration. What more would you think is necessary? Joe suggested shipping limited samples to enthusiasts. How would AMD make that work? Put an ad in the Sunnyvale paper? Put a sign up sheet on the AMD web page? Or simply ship a couple thousand parts to the channel with a "Buy at your own risk" sticker attached, as well as instructions on how to help AMD debug their faulty product? That would do wonders for AMD's reputation as a two-bit CPU provider. wbmw
