Gary,

The history shows that to AMD, release usually means one to two months from the date of release for availability. Intel is just the opposite.

I was looking for a Merced system with a Camino chipset at the store today...

The 8 way Xeons were right on schedule too.

Gary - <You have been getting used to Intel's style of release>

I believe you've hit the nail on the head. I'm getting frustrated as hell because I'm vicariously trying to run AMD like Intel runs Intel. I forgott that for AMD June release means September availability. Thank you for pointing this out. I'll try not to make that mistake again.
