Kapkan, Now I am confused, is the code name a joke or the whole thing ("AMD K8 design team has taped out a month ago and is already working on the next generation processor K9") Mani

re: It is just a joke I made up. K9 sounds like canine (dog family) hence the code name DOG. Hehe....Joke's rarely make it to this thread....unfortunatly;) Most people try to whine in the direction their stock investment guides them to....I Myself have recently bought AMD, but I dont become and AMDite right overnight, nore am I enthousiastic about intel's aging p6 core. Both companies have pro's and con's, and I would enjoy it if some people would be able to admit that in the open. (hej pauleron...-x-) gretz, michael da kota From Holland With Love
