Tench - RE: "given up on the tired old die size argument."

Athlon and Cumine are about equal right now...

"But by the end of this year, I'll bet they'll give up on that argument as well (and probably go back to the die size argument)."

It will make sense to argue die size then because Willy (TM Cirruslvr) is supposedly huge vs what will probably be a smaller competing AMD processor.

Even the most die-hard AMDroids have given up on the tired old die size argument.

<Now it seems GHz is important. But by the end of this year, I'll bet they'll give up on that argument as well (and probably go back to the die size argument).


Tench, by the end of the year, we probably will be discussing profits; both AMD's and our own.
