smooth

but Xeon is a lot faster...

And it's available, outperforms anything AMD has shipped and we know Intel can produce it in high volume. We have ample benchmarks and a roadmap which we can have confidence in. Customers know that. Barcelona is still unknown as to performance, stability, availability and potential ramp. AMD is secretive, evasive, misleading, unreliable and lacking in credibility. Customers know that too. No reliable benchmarks exist and to my knowledge there is no credible report of customers having stable fully functional samples. For people to be joyous over confusing and ambiguous flake rumors from tabloid websites which include the equivalent of "the dog ate my proof" is rather pathetic in my opinion. We have no proof but all the available indicators say Barcelona is a real disappointment compared to the hype. I could be wrong but I'll go with logic over hysteria.
