hmlay - <.. So you allowed me (sorry Kap)and others to think Kap was going bonkers over semantics. You must feel proud of yourself.>

I don't feel sorry for him in the slightest. He knew what the game was at the end of that exchange. He had to put up, or shut up. He put up, and he was wrong. He thought he had proprietary information that was good. His folly.

hmaly, both PB and Kap are at fault here. Kap should never have known about the split-frequency core in the first place, much less go yappin' off about it on this thread. And this thread is full of people who will take the info the wrong way, just like Kap did when he assumed the worst instead of the best.

PB is also at fault here for even answering Kap. This is because PB couldn't have denied it without looking like a liar later on, nor could he have affirmed it, thereby compromising confidentiality.

It just amazes me, however, to think that you guys are rushing to pat Kap on the back for knowing about Willamette's split-frequency core. Sure, he knew (so did Chuck), but he was dead wrong in his conclusions regarding Willamette's base clock speeds. And I'm sure he got at least some of you to assume the worst as well.
