Re: "As for speculations about blue wires, well we all know about the intel blue wires don't we? so all prototypes are works in progress, what of it" Yes all prototypes are works in progress but the prototype was working in the lab over a year ago and the best they can do now is a behind the curtains demo of a 2-way? That's as basic as you can get in SMP and they won't even let the few select guests look inside the box? What's so secret about 2-way SMP? (I type this on my dual Celeron system). Clearly they're still struggling with 2-way after all this time. The validation of 4-way and 8-way systems is much much harder. Intel is years ahead and AMD isn't close to getting out of the gate. EP
