and what exactly have you done with Barcelona

are you just looking for another "scoop" for your website? more information that you can "leak" on upcoming products?

or, do you really want to come through here and sandbag people who have actual experience with the platform, have spent the time trying to understand the issues, etc? only you can answer that...I won't do it for you.

for the record:

B1 chips have the errata worked around in the BIOS.
BA chips have the errata fixed in silicon.
B2 chips are the "SE" parts and have not been committed to production yet (they will be shortly) and should be available by (or during) January.

i have not, anywhere, promoted the idea of performance scaling except where it concerns moving errata fixes from the BIOS to silicon. I have promoted the idea of hardware scaling (core speed increases) but yet, you somehow seem to think that I'm misleading you....interesting.

I have questioned the validity of posted results online based on what I have seen to be poor benchmarking, architecture understanding, etc. but i have not made promises on performance.

for the record, can people stop comparing a 2350 to a 5365? that's 1ghz in clock speed differences that really is a worthless comparison. of COURSE the 5365 is going to be on top. if it didn't, that'd be a big issue, now, wouldn't it?

cheers,
