Jim,

I am not totally convinced that Dresden bin splits are as good as classic athlon. The cache yield issue still worries me. AMD has stated that Dresden yields are as good or better than Austin yields. Technically, this only means that enhanced Athlon yields in Dresden are as good or better than enhanced Athlon yields in Austin. It doesn't say anything about enhanced Athlon in Dresden versus classic in Austin, since Dresden is not making classic Athlon for a comparison. The high pricing of Tbird and, as you point out, the Gateway 1G system may also be indicators. I'm just a little paranoid because I have a lot riding on this baby. The concrete positives far outweigh the speculative negatives, though.

Pravin.
