You are implying that Anandtech benches will rush out ala DailyTech. I don't think so. He already warned us of bad initial results meaning that current stuff works, just really badly and seems to want to do whatever to have the best results as possible. It is very fun to champion Anandtech as AMD fudder, very fashionable, please tell me what is fud about informing us?

FLG, and some other guys are talking about ES/not retail Penryn (I assume) requiring simple BIOS updates and I don't get any sense of "heavy BIOS tweaking", only tweak for recognition. So question to you, do you think mobo makers be more inclined to pity current AM2 users and make BIOS updates for K10 and lose sales on K10 mobos to appease AMD's previous promises, more so than they will for Penryn?
