AMD X2 6500+ coming

I don't care if a CPU is based on a beer can, as long as it performs good. But that's just my opinion.
K8 was based on K7, and C2 was based on CD/PM/P3, and that's not a bad thing! Both were successful!
Making a new CPU from scratch is extremely expensive, takes a lot more time and in most cases it's just plain stupid if you're asking me.

Edit: Maybe we'll have benchmarks sooner than we thought.
Going from 2.6 GHz, 140/125 W to 2.7 GHz, 75 W is just sweet!
