all Madison does is increase the clock frequency by 60% and the cache by 100%. Who cares about that? ;-)

Ten - Re: "To be sure, Madison is still a 2nd-generation IA-64 CPU, in my view."

Perhaps you're right - but hey - I was using AMDroid-Speak !

Yep - a 60% speed increase and a cache-doubling - not too shabby !

If my back of the napkin calculations are correct, that's ~1.6GHz with a 4-6MB cache for an IA-64 product...
