The excuse about using chips from the line is that they could be the worst CPUs ever or the very best ever produced
I have no doubts about Francois being dishonest, I completely trust him and what he says.
But coming up with this new Intel demo to show what cherry picked CPUs can do implies that AMD was using cherry picked CPUs, thus making them look bad, regardless if it was true or not, we can't tell.
I only hope by disabling parts of the CPU, Francois will manage to find a cure fore the Nehalem coldbug from which everybody can benefit.
