Interesting that KapKan4u revealed all this (different clock speed stuff) well before the demo and was laughed at by Ten, PB, Elmer, even Pravin. Pravin I can understand but the other three knew Kap was right and blasted him anyway...yet Pravin is the only one who apologized...>

Because he said NOTHING about functional blocks being DOUBLE the base frequency He was predicting functional blocks, specifically the FPU, at HALF the base frequency, WHICH IS TOTALLY WRONG!

I'm not going to apologize to him for coming on with inaccurate, ill-gotten tidbits, that had the slightest similarity ot the mechanisim, BUT 180 DEGREES IN THE WRONG DIRECTION.
