Mike, Ok. For now, I will give you the benefit of the doubt (innocent until proven guilty). We'll be watching to see if your tone towards Intel changes. Congrats on the Intel dollars. Pravin,.

OT: Mike, The mayor of San Francisco was on Politically Incorrect talking about taking tobacco money and then voting against tobacco. He said "If you can't take peoples money and then turn around and screw them, you have no business in politics." I believe the same is true in magazines. Until the Register proves otherwise, I believe you guys can "take peoples money and then turn around and screw them". Redbird

Yeah, but do you still get paid if a web ad has a a link that goes nowhere? Because that's what I still get when I click on the ad in theregister.co.uk, intel.co.uk = "Not Found". I'll assume it's Intel's fault. Since I normally run with image download off, I was initially quite confused as to why Andreas thought Intel was making a bad joke about the Queen of England and dot-coms. To tie it all together with American politics, Lyndon LaRouche would have to be in there somewhere, maybe painted blue or something.. Anyway, I don't imagine ZD is in the habit of turning down Intel ads either.

-AMD-760-Based 21264B Motherboard (HARDWARE) Posted By Brian Neal Thursday, March 22, 2001 - 5:03:05 PM Thanks to Temp for letting me know about this motherboard, the UP1500 from Samsung/APIN, which is based on the AMD-760 chipset and supports the new Alpha 21264B processors and DDR SDRAM. The board is configured as follows: 1 Alpha 21264B CPU 4 MB or 8 MB DDR SRAM L2 AMD-761 Northbridge 266 MHz FSB 64-bit DDR SDRAM Memory Interface Expansion 1 AGP 4x slot 3 32-bit/33 MHz PCI slots 4 184-pin DDR SDRAM sockets 2 USB ports 2 ATA-100 IDE channels 10/100Mbit Ethernet The motherboard is essentially an upgrade to Samsung/APIN's older UP1100, which was based on the AMD-750 chipset and used standard PC100 SDRAM. While the PC2100 DDR SDRAM memory subsystem supported by this new UP1500 motherboard still offers less bandwidth than more traditional Alpha solutions like the UP2000 (83 MHz SDRAM, 4-way interleaved), it should offer quite a boost to APIN's low-end Alpha workstations, especially when coupled with the new 21264B CPUs. The UP1500 is currently listed as "Under Development" and no clear release date is listed. However, it's appearance on Samsung's website would seem to indicate an introduction is drawing near. You can find a list of Samsung/APIN's other Alpha motherboards here >> Discuss this Topic on General: 8 Comments in Thread AMD-760MP at CeBit, Palomino in Q3 (AMD) Posted By Brian Neal Thursday, March 22, 2001 - 3:42:56 PM Thanks to KeithDust2000 for pointing out this article (German) reporting on the appearance of a dual-processor AMD-760MP system from VA Linux using Palomino CPUs. The VA Linux system is a 1U rack-mount unit using Tyan's dual-processor Thunder K7. As you can see from the picture below, there is a rather significant difference in the shape and size of the Palomino processor core: aceshardware.com Comments? I like how Alpha and AMD keep getting tighter and tighter. M.
