scum bria - Re: "Intel always gets it right. After all, they have been shipping the same core for 4 years, and will continue to do so for another one-two years."

Doesn't say much for AMD when Intel can design such a rock-solid core 4 years in advance - on a 0.6 micron process no less ! - and have it still beat AMD's latest and greatest hot-off-the-printing-press cores 4 years later.

Guess what?

Next year, Intel's Coppermine and Cascades will be based on at-that-time 5 year old cores - and they will beat anything AMD can put out at that time - assuming AMD is still putting anything out next year.

Won't that just roast your toast?
