Re: "I'm confused. Are they saying they are going to kill a promising 32 bit chip that might be able to compete in the red,white and blue hot small server market, and concentrate on a chip that can't supposedly be ready until late 2001? Resource limitation problems?" I'm speculating here, but don't forget muskrat would have a very large on-die L2 and AMD has never shown their ability to manufacture very large caches. Couple that with the mysteriously low output or K7 processors from their 2 large fabs and the continued problems with getting SMP to work (next summer at best) and you have a recipe for trouble. EP
