Hope I didn't touch a "sensitive spot". I think you might have. As you may remember, after years of unprecedented hype and delays, AMD's Barfilona demo was an embarrassing display of nothing more than taskmanager, or at least they claimed it was taskmanager. We'll never know really what it was because their goon squad security forces wouldn't let anyone near the system to see what was under the hood. It was the equivalent of hyping a new ultra high performance race car and after delay upon delay showing a junker up on milk crates, backfiring and belching smoke. It's a bit of a sensitive subject for CJ so I took pity on him and didn't rub it in. I'm really a nice guy at heart...
