Charles <Agreed! As much as I keep being impressed with AMD engineering, I have nothing good to say about AMD Marketing/PR guys at this point.
Even Rob Herb, as much as I have been pleased with his public speaking skills, I am starting to wonder if he is strong enough a guy to be
leading this group. Given the strategic importance of x86-64 unveiling and how poorly it was done, this gotto be a BIG black mark for this
guy.>

Wow. You took those words out of my mouth. I've known for a while that my investment in AMD was based on engineers, and the rest of the company stinks (I think I've been quite vocal - since pr/adv/mar/com is my profession). I've given up with Toni, and I've told her much of what I stated above. I would urge everyone feeling the same to contact AMD. Anyone who calls this a fool's fame is very much mistaken. I've seen people replaced. You own part of the company and it's your responsibility to give your input any way you can.

Just me 2 cents.
