Re: "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!"

Give me a break. You know exactly what I'm talking about.

Re: "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?"

We know from the press release that there is at least 128k of L2 on the chip. We know from other press surrounding the demo that the chip was a Thunderbird--and that means a significantly larger than 128k L2 on the chip. That qualifies as a large L2, IMHO.

What's your "expert" opinion, Youseless--errr, Fudd-boy?
