ok the way i read it is, we have 100 cherry picked rebranded Phenom II's that we are going to hand out to the same mob that usualy get the free hand outs.

how exciting

i dont want to sound negative here, as you all know i am an avid AMD fan all the way, but lets just think about this, were more and likely gona see 7Ghz broken with one of these chips, and by any definintion thats great for AMD, but its still a bit of the 8Ghz plus that has been done on intel.

now yes its an important milestone for AMD and its users, but with K|ngP|n just missing the mark on that, is another 200 mhz that exciting, i mean really cmon is it?

maybe i am very wrong and these are gona give us 7.5 gig+ and maybe 8 gig, but i dought it.

its just starting to look like a very drawn out marketing exercise, lets move on to pastures new, instead of hanging around doing the same thing with even more cherry picked chips.

anyways good luck to the usual mob that get them, and i hope you have a ton of fun
