NE1 here have any related news to-->Multiprocessor Athlon Systems At Cebit? Reported by: Chris Tom At: 1:20 AM Source: e-mail Now this is some kick ass news! Jurjen van Geenen let me know that the German c't has info on it here heise.de . Here's the translation courtesy of Babelfish: babelfish.altavista.com AMD (H13, D08) demonstrated on the ISSCC already first prototypes of the copper Athlon with integrated L2-Cache (Thunderbird) with 1,1 GHz clock and delivers now 850-MHz-Versionen. In order to be able to mix together in the workstation scene, above all also multiprocessor systems are important: If everything runs well, one will be allowed to admire on the CeBIT also the first Athlon multiprocessor systems, probably on base of the Tsunami Chipsatzes of Compaq/Digital amdzone.com Comments?

The multiprocessing thing has somewhat of a mystery for me. AMD had a dual processor chipset for a long while now but the story keeps changing all the time. Looks to me like we will not get definitive answers until AMD officially clarifies the situation. Chuck
