Combjelly, Re: "That is the fascinating thing about this bit of news. Note that this is a rebate for the channel, not OEMs. And Intel has chosen to rebate a product at introduction that doesn't compete head to head with a current AMD product. Maybe Intel knows something that we don't know..." Or maybe the story is false. Re: "Other than generally poorer performance, that is." Other than the AMDroids wishing this were true, there is no evidence that this is so. I would think that the L3 cache, as well as Hyperthreading, ought to put Foster into a whole new performance class (and I mean a whole new higher performing performance class, too, Combjelly ;-). wbmw
