They could have compete much better with dualcore phenome against C2D then old tech K8 based cpu's.
I can't believe it is hard to make dualcore phenoms. Should be easy for them.
So you think duals based on the 'sucky' quads don't suck?

Seriously, even if Kuma was launched concurrently with Agena, it wouldn't have made a lot of difference to AMD in terms of competitiveness in the dual core market, especially at the modest 2.3GHz clockspeed. We already had 3GHz+ Wolfdales by then...
