Sure Elmer. That was the discussion. The location of the left edge of the arrow. And not what you thought it implied.

FPG - No, it was about the existence of the 2010 anchored arrow, and clearly everybody but CJ can see it was there.

Now if you'd like to have a separate discussion on what it implied then we can do that as well. I am always happy to discuss AMD's lack of integrity.

I think Sparrky made a good start:

On the slide, the Bulldozer arrow very clearly starts in 2010. If they didn't want people to think it was a 2010 product they would have lined it up with 2011, or used the same format they used in that slide-deck for the desktop and mobile roadmaps. AMD was leaving themselves their the normal wiggle room they need when they aren't confident about their schedules, yet want analysts to assume the best.

I would go a bit farther to say that AMD knew there was no chance it would be a 2010 product and they were simply lying, knowing full well that people such as yourself would believe anything they said.
