    Computex sandbagging is more like it.

    Nah, there's no motivation for them to do that...

    Besides, it was not just Computex demo parts... it was OEMs, mobo makers, and they pushed out the Phenom timing in their latest roadmap.

    AMD is in such trouble they are hardly going to sandbag the whole world and try to make them believe they are in even worse trouble... there's no point to it.

    If they had fast parts, they'd be seeding them everywhere right now, making sure incredible scores were leaking all over the net.

    If they sandbagged at computex they should fire everyone at marketing and management of the company. Because that would be the biggest PR blunder ever.

    Look at Intel, they demo first Conroe, now Penryn and they are set on PR. It all takes care of itself for free. Massive PR for hardly any money.

    Just think on what good any sandbagging would do. And then tell me.

    Before K8 AMD was in full PR mode for over a year before.
