Re: "Based on all the information we have available to us (i.e. AMD's roadmap), we know that IF there was L2 on the die, (which the press release stated very clearly), then it was at least 128k."

For those not interested in how many Angels can dance on the head of a pin just ignore the following.

Not that it matters much, but I think you just contradicted yourself. The above statement is a plausable explanation of how you can come to that conclusion, however as you demonstrate, it is from information not contained in the press release. You stated "from the press release we know that it was a 128k L2 or greater" and then you show that we don't know that from the press release but must infer it from information contained in other sources, not from the press release itself as you originally (erroneously) stated.

As you point out, this is a minor distinction and like I keep saying I know you didn't intend to be misleading or intentionally spread fud, regardless of how you would have reacted if I had made the same mistake.

Do I have to send you roses to get you to believe that I believe you?
