James,

Re:"posts et al"

I can sense your frustration and share some of it.

On the one hand there is a whole lot of name calling from the two sides but it would be kind of boring without some of the agressive postings.

In addition it is good to hear the view of the anti-amd crowd as they have an important viewpoint to add.

As you point out there is tremendous information posted regularly here as well.

I do wish there was a forum that provided a way of sifting through the posts and also listed "important items" or news nuggets that would be easy to find and collate. As well as read the viewpoints of many readers.

I have been giving this some thought as to how to make it work - but it won't work within the SI format.

Just my $0.02.

regards,

Kash.

Jim,
I don't think it's possible to have the "information posts" without the "sucks posts" because without the "sucks posts" there is no incentive to back them up with the "information posts".

or something like that...
