I can assure you that "you will not be disappointed". In 1997 Microprocessor Forum (MF) AMD revealed the K6-3D chip now called K6-2. All the Intelabees called it HYPE. Intel engineers on the other hand were impressed and went back to COPY AMD technology and now calling it KNI. Nevertheless the K6-2 was introduced by AMD 8 months later and ON TIME. You will be "disappointed" because your boss will tell you that you can't go to the MF because Intel is cutting budget and don't accommodate any "dead weight".

If you attend the Microprocessor Forum, you can personally ask Greg Favor and Jedediah Sanders IIIII why the "Sharpy" is late - announced a year ago, it still isn't shipping.

Something is slipping at AMD.
