Re: "I can not recall giving amd credit for hammer. Would you be kind enough to point to the post, I'd be forever in your debt :-))"

Sure.

You just hang on - I'm looking it up now !

I knew that and I was talking about fallback plan. BTW did not Microsoft announce that they would support hammer?

re: I can hardly blame them for that.
no one blaming anyone here. We are talking about increasing capacity
re: Let me straighten things out for you.
I'd appreciate it very much
re: AMD plans to have significantly more volumes of .13u parts than .18u parts
amd is going from a 2 cpu fabs to 1 and plus hammers are going to be larger than athlons and it is not now but in the future.
re: even if they have to stuff most of their shipments
Is that an official data that I have missed
re: to stuff the market full of CPUs
wait a sec, are you are not saying - don't touch the market it belongs to intel.
re: just to produce the same volumes
would not that contradict the fact that intel gained .7% of market share
I know that we are all biased one way or another but don't you think that you stretching it

re: If AMD goes ahead with using model numbers to confuse the consumer into buying their product, then they are the deceptive ones.

while I am not thrilled that amd is devising model scheme I do not see it as deceptive. Intel call "2 GHz" as speed of the processor and that is really deceptive. Hz is a frequency measure and speed is usually understood as performance characteristics. p4-1Ghz and athlon mp 1Ghz are not the processors of the same speed but the processors that operate at the same frequency. I have not heard Otellini's speech but if it states what you said then Otellini seems to have no problem lying to people

re: Paul Otellini spoke for a long time on getting computers "beyond megahertz"

could it be because hammer is going to operate at much higher frequency than Itanium?

barrett stated clearly stated his goal to regain lost market share. Even with 100% control over commercial and mobile (recently changed) sectors intel was loosing market share to amd. Barrett said that the price cuts would stimulate the market but the reality is that decrease in price of the chip is marginal as compared to the price of the system and (economics 101)market would absorb just as much as it would be willing to absorb. Hence the price cuts is to regain market share.
Now consider how much intel is cutting to add few % to their market share and you will see that it is less than optimal assuming that products would stay as they are and demand is irrelevant for that consideration.
AMD's new product line include chip designed for commercial use and mobile markets. Power consumption of mobile athlon is only 25% higher than pIII while pIII is on .13.
If amd would manage to hold on to OEMs (lost few already) and market share then mid next year we might see a lot of hammers in desktops.
But Barrett said that he wants to stimulate the market regardless the stats that show his action as slowing the market. I believe him, don't you.

re: AMD is having trouble staying competitive frequency wise
I buy my computers based on how fast they run my programs and not how fast their respective cpu clocks may oscillate. If you promise to be consistent then I'll agree with that the clock is more important than performance that is ia-64 is going be hammered by hammer because it's clock would oscillate much faster <gggg>

cool, cnet pointed to something that we have not considered and that is mobile brand. Both companies would have desktop #4 but only amd would have mobile #4. I am sold on athlon 4.
And by the time intel 4 would find its way into notebooks amd desktops should see hammer family.
I withdraw my proposal for athlon xp <ggg>
