    Oh I don't doubt that... I doubt their abilities to fix the problems quickly and efficiently.

    Its just a thread with a bunch of questions..... So where are the answers? I am still hoping that there is some sort of fix-all that will make their Bulldozer the "hero" we expected; but that is what think of when we're disappointed. They were promising us a "Goku" in great DragonballZ fashion, and we got Mr. Hercule Satan, the wanna be tough guy who might be strong by human standards, but in reality he just can't compete as promised.

    There are things that it obviously does well, but I wouldn't buy one for my system until they deliver the promised results, and not this disappointment. Its like promising a Luxury Car with M5 worthy peformance only to find that it can just keep up with a Dodge Charger.....

    *Ducks and covers from anticipated onslaught*

    P.S. Not preaching hate, as I have been using AMD for a while now, and would like to stay. However, I am disappointed in them since this is just another disappointment in a long line of them. Glad I didn't buy their stock.

    Edit: I await the day that engineers are designing products at AMD again, rather than accountants.....
