Whoops...
When I saw "AMD" answering I thought it was someone besides Drew. My bad...
Still, where the heck is the SMP chipset...?
Hope you were serious about the problems being solved...
I just don't know enough about chip design other to wonder why it took so long to fix it...

RE:"Any idea why AMD opted to muck up the Dupalon launch and back-to-school selling season - instead of going after the server market with those YEAR OLD SMP systems?"

No, I was hoping one of you guys could shed some light on it...the SMP thing that is.All I can say is that it isn't easy. <G>
Duralons? Why...no infrastucture...just like the problems Intel will have if it has to rely on third party vendors for DDR support.
