Dan is easily staggered when it comes to AMD. Let's see if he updates with confirmation and more details, or takes the Theo-30K-3dMark06 route. How do you like those overvolted 2.5GHz samples?

Mas, It is simple ....... Almost everything AMD states, recently seems to leave some sort of lingering doubt or suspicion .... IF you were a thinking man you would also have some doubts ....... This seems to be the perception out there on Tech related sites.......... (An Excerpt): <<...We were hoping that the interwibble would have stumped up plenty of benchmarks and independent analysis of AMD's technology by now. Alas; this has not been the case. It seems that, bucking the trend most hardware manufacturers tend to follow, the folks from Austin have declined to put early systems and silicon in the hands of testers, instead using their slide deck to tout performance and feature advantages found in their own labs. A dubious practice to be sure, such conservatism warrants a closer look. ...> theinquirer.net And this excerpt: <.....Next week expect more from HEXUS on AMD ‘Barcelona’ and how its own customers are confused and frustrated over AMD’s extremely restricted media product sampling ‘strategy’ of this new product... which, it seems they believe, could cost them a packet at the expense of AMD endeavouring to tactically influence a, um, initial ‘proper understanding’ of the chip and its platform proposition by the hands-on sampling of the most appropriately friendly of ‘media partners’... >>> hexus.net J PS WHY is AMD having their "Barcelona Celebration" at 9-30 PM Eastern time? Would it not have been better during the day .... when more people could "celebrate" what your buddy Hector says? Also ..... Will the "celebration" include some "FAIR SHARE" howling? PPS: Why does every one of your posts today, end in a "winky" ? ...... Insurance?
