No, I think he means an upgrade that really wasn't much of an upgrade at all. AM2 was mostly a compatibility change over from Sc-939 DDR1 to DDR2 more or less. Upgrade paths are moot, IMHO, I think AM3 will make sticking with AM2+ or etc.. a poor decision. AM3 will perform better since PhII might need more bandwidth.
Poor décision? AM3 cpus are functionnal on AM2+ motherboard so why it's a poor décision? If you want to stick with DDR2 you can for a long time. If you want to go to DDR3 it's like on Intel platform, you change your mobo!
