Elmer claimed: "As for AMD's SMP demo, it was a behind the curtain closed box demo with booting problems. No one was allowed to look inside the box. After well over a year of trying to get it to work I think it's fair to say they still don't have it working."

Elmer.. knowing you're a master of trying to get under people's skin over here.. I'll give you the opportunity to say so. I asked the fellows at Ace's Hardware about the so-called "problems" you brought up and they said while the presentation was indeed behind closed doors, they hadnt heard any such talk about it not booting properly or any other such problems. I've looked around myself at the hardware press and also dont see any mention of any booting problems or otherwise, so I would suggest you either admit you were over-embellishing your statement to get some ppl aggravated, else provide a link or some proof of your claims.
