Re: Those from their new Dresden, Germany, fab... Some parts of that story didn't make much sense, for example: Mass production of the newest Athlon (code named Thunderbird) is set for the third quarter. Samples were available at the Computex show here last week Considering that vendors like Gateway are showing wide availability of Thunderbirds, I'd say mass production started at least 3 months ago. Could he have somehow confused Thunderbirds with DDR chipsets (that won't go into production until Q3 and are probably of "uneven quality" at this point). Could there have been a translation problem?
