Re:architectural changes - there was this comment on Ace's CeBit Report:
aceshardware.com
"Mark* did not want to discuss the architectural enhancements of the Palomino, but he confirmed that the chip has several architectural enhancements which boost performance. Also interesting was the claim that several applications will see a significant boost. Our industry sources say that the Palomino definitely has hardware prefetch, and we bet it has improved branch prediction too. These two features make the Palomino a very good server CPU, for example, to run TP (Transaction Processing) applications.

*Mark Bode "of AMD"
So is that a pre-fetch statement from AMD? Not exactly. |-p
