Re: "Before you get all excited about the non-production process angle, keep in mind that the processor that AMD demo'd was a brand new core, with large, on-die L2 and other architectural enhancements over the currently shipping Athlon."

You guys keep insisting the CuMine is the same old PPro core from years gone-by yet now you say that after less than 6 months of production life suddenly Athlon has a brand new core! Baloney!

Large on-die L2? How large was it? From the press release I can't find any mention of the L2 size. How do you know it wasn't a small L2?
