Jeff,

Re: "Any reputable company would have tested the thing - and not released until
it worked with the #1 installed OS."

AMD was well aware of this flaw before the first 350mhz K6-2 shipped -->

Message 5864769

"AMD has known about the flaw since the release
of the 350-MHz K6-2, and has been working on a
patch since then. Typically, AMD does not post
information on processor flaws until a fix is found,
said sources."


Doesn't that just fill you with confidence ... Who's "at the wheel" of
this company anyway.

Make It So,
Yousef

Re: Are you saying that AMD has a mission to highlight MS bugs of the past?
