re: Then we heard stories of a million stranded Slot A boards out there

I do believe that that amd promised to fill 1mil slot A boards at the announcement of new socket A. That is not something new and it is very reasonable.

I do not believe that classic athlons are in production, those stlot a chips are t-birds.

I still believe that the problem is in not in support - while there is no big difference in durons and t-bird performance duron may hurt amd strategy of moving to higher end. AMD is not going to admit it and they would rather look for any excuse to delay intro

Regards

Hi Dan3; You have a pretty good understanding of benchmarking &c. What is your view on the effect of DDR on system performance for high end AMD and Intel processors, and multiprocessors?
