ask Elmer. He's convinced they demonstrated the full power of BD (which a Llano was 5x better at 3 weeks ago.)

Now now FPG. You're being disingenuous again. That was a quote from an analyst who witnessed the underwhelming "demo".

Oh wait, that has been doable for several years now. With a 1 core machine armed with an IGP. Call me unimpressed, especially since they showed a Llano doing 5x that at AMD's TFE conference 3 weeks ago.

Would AMD purposely make BDZ look bad if it was capable of more in it's current state? I don't think so. What you saw is about all that BDZ is able to do now. Doesn't give confidence that everything will be fully up to speed by Q2 but why would you care? AMD said it'll be shipping and you believe everything they say.
