Tony - What the MADroids should be doing is asking themselves the following quaetions: What will Clawhammer do to Athlon sales? Clawhammer will be a desktop CPU at launch and only run 32 bit software - and its die size will be bigger than a ThoroDead SOI - yet it will compete with the ThoroDead and the AthyWiper XP. With the Clawhammer only at 1-way, and the 2-way delayed until next year, customers are not going to commit to an entire new infrastructure of headaches - new chip sets, new CPU new motherboards, new DRIVERS , etc. The demand for the ClawHamster may be so miniscule that the DROIDS will be in for a cardiac arrest.

Tony, <If that group of hang on every word fanatics can't agree on QS, how can the rest of the world, plus dog, have any chance of knowing what the f^&% it means?> They still can't accept the notion that "QuantiSpeed" is not determined by some scientific, quantitative process, but by the arbitrary whims of AMD marketing. Maybe they can hire a former Pairs Figure Skating judge from France. She might be a fairer judge of performance than the creators of AMDroid propaganda ... ;-) Tenchusatsu
