Scott, Re: Pure speculation, Doug. do you have some proof about that? Ever heard of common sense? (no, there isn't a link for that <g>) If everything had gone right, we would be able to buy 1 GHz Athlons from HP, Compaq et al now. Andreas

<< Pure speculation, Doug. do you have some proof about that? I havent seen any hardware site with their usual sources that make the same claim: Here's what Tom had to say about the situation from CEBIT: >> Yes, it's pure speculation based on the fact that I would hope AMD wouldn't want to cede the entire laptop market to Intel if they could have released something. Maybe the problems they are having are small, but if they are having no problems and everything is good to go, then I have a hard time understanding why they aren't here. Maybe they had problems, and now they are fixed. Whatever the case, I want to see laptop parts ASAP. << Nice little story as well about dual athlon release in probably May or June... and also a snippet about AMD being surprised certain people (or mobo makers) are claiming AMD-760 chipset will be discontinued.. denying this to be the case >> So far whenever the Dual chips come up, they give a date, and when the date comes they push it back 6 months. Let's hope it really comes out this time.
