I didn't know Intel would knowingly tell people that certain chipsets have taped out. You can imagine how such information, whether true or false, can fuel a lot of speculation and unwanted hype.

Scumbria - Re: " It is interesting to me how much information is available about the status of Intel designs in progress. In contrast, NSM is very tight lipped, and AMD spreads huge amount of hype about their unfinished products." Intel's product & design cycles proceed rather regularly - although deliberately in most cases. The progress is then more easily monitored. NSM and AMD don't have that regimented process to follow - hence the erratic performance and information availability. Paul
