Hello Epinephrine,

Re: How does your "possible explanation" make any sense whatsoever in light of the fact that Crazyoldman claims to have 3 Athlons with Week 9 '99 date codes. Are you saying AMD delayed the launch at the last minute only to ship the delayed parts a few months later? That makes no sense! In my opinion there are only three reasonable explanations.

#1) The date codes are wrong.
#2) Crazyoldman is misinterpreting the date codes.
#3) Athlon's were indeed ready in the timeframe that Jim McMannis claimed but the infrastructure and partners were not ready for a launch.

Fellows, I have access to a digital camera at work. If it will help, perhaps I need to photograph each of the processors (with date codes) in those machines and somehow post those photos here.

I know pAuL (and others) have pictures on their SI Profile page, does anyone know if it's possible to post pictures within these messages? Do HTML codes for pictures work here?

Kindest regards,
CrazyMan
