Now I guess if calculating pi to the nth digit is your thing then whatever, do what you want.
While I agree superpi doesn't mean jacksh*t, I must say it's not the only things apparently Barcelona suck in - look at Cinebench, look at almost any leaked numbers: they all worse clock-for-clock than current Intel numbers, let alone Penryn or after that.

It sure looks dark for AMD.
