Heatsinker, Re: Do you think this 1 Ghz Duron is a Morgan or a crippled Palomino?

Judging from this picture I think it's a Morgan:

tecchannel.de

Just for comparison that's how Palomino (Athlon MP) looks:

tecchannel.de

The die is clearly larger.

But I agree that AMD probably did a "rush job" with the Morgan. And with the core voltage at 1.75V (formerly it was at 1.5V for Durons) we have even more reason to believe that it's binning poorly.
