Mas, Again no real arguments?!

I meant his and your specific point 4 not all 4 points. On that I agree with your backing up of AMD's statement. On the other points I am not convinced by yours or his arguments without more concrete factual evidence.
"not convinced" means it's possible which means you had no basis for insult.

Just speculation about performance, yields and spins with no real evidence to call AMD liars on such which was my original point. He makes pretty sweeping statements on AMD based on his imaginative speculation and I don't think it is insulting to him personally to show my contempt at such extrapolative statements. Can we not attack arguments now ?
Arguments are the only thing really worth attacking. So no. I backed up DougSF's 4 points only with slight nuances that I have given reasons for. You have not come up with any significant counter argument for my arguments and only rather weak ones for DougSF's original points that I'm largely defending. I'm doing that because I want to show you there was no basis to start insults once again.

DougSF didn't call AMD liars in this thread. You interpreted that he implied it without looking or countering the implied arguments. So this is insulting him AGAIN. And again without anywhere nearly good enough basis. It's wrong.

Do I have to say nice cuddly things when he posts what I consider to be rubbish ?
I think your post was rubbish. It was insulting. It contained no arguments. After talking about it several times you still have no real arguments.

If you think a post is rubbish you can say so. In case it involves a post from DougSF I'm requesting you specifically to include arguments because it'll bring down the amount of insulting posts and improve the quality. It forces reason where feelings are of too much influence. I think it's a logical and reasonable request. I'm going to hold you to it too especially now Doug is refraining from using insults.

I think you may have got attacking the poster and attacking the argument a bit confused here.
No you have. I showed it by using arguments about this particular thread. You attacked the poster. Afterwards your arguments are shown wanting. I'm not asking you to admit anything. I simply don't care about that. I will hold you to not posting insults about DougSF without hard arguments. I'm holding DougSF to the same thing. I think it's sensible and fair.

Please no insults without rather good explicit arguments. Reasonable, right?

Regards,

Rink

Here are my arguments. I'm open and willing to learn from whatever hole anyone can find in it. That's my general attitude.
