RE:"But Intel is trying to get at least some good press, so they announce they are sampling. Pretty pathetic, actually."

Intel has been doing this for 2 years...the 'ole, "wait for us, we have a really cool chip, just around the corner....you don't need to buy that Athlon..."

Re: "Well, since AMD generally doesn't announce when they are sampling, it might even be true that AMD is sampling those 0.13 micron chips now. "
