Ali, I agree that SPEC is hardly a perfect benchmark. However, this should indicate to you that benchmarking around performance, and keeping it "fair", is a very difficult thing. But if the rest of the industry can't handle it, how do you expect the AMD TPI to turn out anything substantial?

The fact is that QuantiSpeed is the best that AMD has to offer, and if you have problems with SPEC, then even you should realize that this solution is far less ideal.

Ali, <AMD does not use SPEC because it is irrelevant to the segment they decided to compete.>

You mean AMD decided not to compete in the workstation market? Good one.
