Re: "And that's what we call fudd!"

Sir, the question directed to PB was does he know if Intel has any plans to do Local Interconnect. That's not FUD, that's something you AMD longs should take very seriously. Intel is currently shipping a processor with 1.5MEG L1 cache. That's about 12x what Athlon has. If Intel were to use LI they could do significantly greater than that. AMD can't effectively do 256K, even with LI as witnessed by the scarcity of K6-3s. It is not FUD. You should be concerned because integrated L1/L2 is going to make or break the processor wars.
