Hi Chic,
Re. "Titanium" & "Iranium" - I sense that you are not very impressed with this chip. Care to elaborate ?
Welcome aboard,

chic,

That leaves something Copper out of Dresdan, I'm guessing it was very fast. Like I said, this is pure rumor. There are always hundreds of rumors flying with any company the size of IBM.

So we are talking about a chip that currently is not shown on AMD's roadmap?

I'm straight out of college and am a pee-on for the moment. I make websites, so I don't come in contact with the PC division.

Was that peon, or are you into water sports?

This rumor was started back in November, if I recall right. I've read about it ?here? and on other message boards.

I was posting at that time and don't remember anyone mentioning it....maybe the AMD Yahoo or RB boards. Someone else might remember though.

Obviously, if I had true insider info, I would not be able to say anything.

Maybe we can arrange to have you sneak someone into the PC division and see what we can find out. LOL

I didn't know IBM had a division setting up websites. What kind of websites do you design?

Hello chic,

Welcome to the thread. Hope you enjoy the banter as much as I do. There's a bunch of crazy people around here so be careful. There's also a bunch of good information and world class analysis.

Kindest regards,
CrazyMan
