Scumbria,

re:"833/850/866 launch"

On a more serious note.

The only scenario that makes sense is that this was to be another vapor launch using the new stepping. With real volumes showing up in 2-4 weeks.

Perhaps lead lots have come out and yields stink.

Remember the cxt core fiasco at AMD last year.

Or perhaps yields are bi-polar like with AMD.

With some yielding at 1Ghz and balance running at 500-600Mhz.

This is a truly amazing turn of events.

regards,

Kash
