Re: the AMD style launch with you all checking Pricewatch every day for weeks... That was no fun at all, all of us AMD longs were like kids on a car trip: "Are we there yet?, Are we there yet?, Are we there yet?, Are we there yet?" When you're the little guy, with little industry backing, and what is there is being influenced by your competitor to not support you, you have to start slow. I seems to be working out... finally.

<It is clear to me at this point that this "seventh generation processor" is in the same base path as Coppermine, a years old core. I find the AMD marketing /PR thing quite disingenuous.> It is clear to you? OK. Can you please post the Specint and SpecFP numbers as soon as you get your hands on them? And, some one on the thread will graciously provide the equivalents for the then shipping Athlon family member. Let's do some apples to apples comparisons of shipping systems as they become available.
