Human translation of the 1.5 GHz rumor:

THUNDERBIRD

The T-bird was produced from the start with 1.5 GHz.
Until April only in small quantities. From May on in higher
volumes. The number mentioned by Sanders of 180.000 CPUs
for Q2 is right. These were already produced in May.
The production of the 2nd half of May and June is expected
to be sold in Q3.

Der T-Bird wurde in Dresden von Anfang an schon mit 1,5 GHz produziert. Bis April nur in geringen Stckzahlen. Seit Mai in nennenswerten Stckzahlen. Die von Sanders
genannte Stckzahl von ca. 180.000 CPUs fr das 2. Quartal trifft zu. Diese wurden im Werk bereits bis Mai produziert. Die Produktion der zweiten Maih„lfte und des Juni
kommt dann erst im 3. Quartal zum Verkauf.


June 5th will be the official introduction of the 1.5 GHz
T-bird. It is produced in a process close to 130 nm.
180 nm isn't used at Dresden anymore.

Am 5. Juni wird der der T-Bird mit 1,5 GHz in copper-Technologie offziell vorgestellt. Dieser wir bereits nahe 130 nm produziert. 180 nm ist fr Dresden kein Thema mehr.

The 1.5 GHz Thunderbird has already been sold to large
customers. It will make it into the shops at June 5.

1,5 GHz Thunderbird wurde bereits an groáe Kunden verkauft. Gelangt aber erst ab 5. 6. in die Regale.

They are also already producing CPU with speeds over 1500 MHZ

Es wurden und werden auch schon CPUs ber 1500 MHz produziert.

The same guy wrote a whole bunch of messages after this
one. He doesn't look like an idiot and seems fairly
knowledgable about AMD.

A prototype demonstration of a 130 nm 1.5 GHz T-Bird
is a real possibility. But reliable Volume Production....
