SCUMbria - Re: "is a brand new design, and dissipates a lot of power. PII had terrible power issues at first, but they were corrected over time. I expect that Athlon will do the same."

You are so full of SH*T !

MERCED IS A BRAND NEW DESIGN as well - but that EXCUSE doesn't fit your line of BULL SHIT - does it?

You're just another hypocrite AMDroid, SCUMbria.

Scumbria,

Itanium is a brand new design, and dissipates a lot of power. PII had terrible power issues at first, but they were corrected over time. I expect that Itanium will do the same.

The last thing that CPU designers worry about for first silicon is power.

Scumbria, errrr I mean Eric.
