    What if in 2011 AMD postpones Bulldozer to 2013+?

    I think !
    K6+K7+K10--> K11 Bulldozer.
    When AMD had 64-bit and Intel had only 32-bit, they tried to tell the world there was no need for 64-bit. Until they got 64-bit.
    When AMD had IMC and Intel had FSB, they told the world "there is plenty of life left in the FSB" (actual quote, and yes, they had *math* to show it had more bandwidth). Until they got an IMC.
    When AMD had dual core and Intel had single core, they told the world that consumers don't need multi core. Until they got dual core.
    When intel was using MCM, they said it was a better solution than native dies. Until they got native dies. (To be fair, we knocked *unconnected* MCM, and still do, we never knocked MCM as a technology, so hold your flames.)

    , stupid post.

    Im quite curious for Bulldozer, but well, anything could happen which might delay or advance it for a quarter. Im looking forward to it but comparing it to a possible release from its competitor, come on We cant even predict on a solid base what's going to happen in 6 months, let alone end '10/ start '11,

    Maybe they have lowered the priority for bulldozer because AMD has seen that they can improve Phenom much more. I think this is a good thing because it will mean that the AM2 socket will last longer. Also the need for bulldozer performance isn't needed for most PC users. Spending a lot of money that isn't going to sell that well, how smart is that? Better to wait as long as you can and build bulldozer as with the best possible design.

    I have been using Phenom II 940 in vmware. Phenom II is a huge improvement in speed. It is almost as you don't notice that you work in a virtual machine compared to work on the main machine. Maybe this speed improvement is because RVI.

    It is more likely that they blundered the development process and had to either start again or do a substantial redesign, necessitating the mooted timeline.
