Especially since your brand new "insider info" only came out after charlie's article and doesn't contain any new information. You could resolve this by simply giving a bit of info that hasn't been publicly posted before, but we all know that isn't going to happen.
    I have been talking about this way before this article was published on OCN, actually. I am not the one who is actually under NDA. My information comes from another person who is under NDA who has breached it by telling me and for that reason I do not feel comfortable revealing any details or sources as it may be linked back to the person who told me.

    This is all petty and irrelevant though. This entire argument will be laid to rest come Q1. Again, what I have said in the past was all speculation on my part and that was before I had contact with the source under NDA.

    I am putting my reputation on the line here if this doesn't come true. It will though and that is why I am completely confident in saying what I am.

    The past info on Fermi that you provided that was incorect was not spoken as speculation but as facts that you had much like what your saying now.

    Im not saying I dont appreciate the info you try to give us, but when you do not acknowledge that it is only speculation. It makes it realy hard to put much faith into what your saying now.
    Particle's First Rule of Online Technical Discussion:
    As a thread about any computer related subject has its length approach infinity, the likelihood and inevitability of a poorly constructed AMD vs. Intel fight also exponentially increases.

    Rule 1A:
    Likewise, the frequency of a car pseudoanalogy to explain a technical concept increases with thread length. This will make many people chuckle, as computer people are rarely knowledgeable about vehicular mechanics.

    Rule 2:
    When confronted with a post that is contrary to what a poster likes, believes, or most often wants to be correct, the poster will pick out only minor details that are largely irrelevant in an attempt to shut out the conflicting idea. The core of the post will be left alone since it isn't easy to contradict what the person is actually saying.

    Rule 2A:
    When a poster cannot properly refute a post they do not like (as described above), the poster will most likely invent fictitious counter-points and/or begin to attack the other's credibility in feeble ways that are dramatic but irrelevant. Do not underestimate this tactic, as in the online world this will sway many observers. Do not forget: Correctness is decided only by what is said last, the most loudly, or with greatest repetition.

    Remember: When debating online, everyone else is ALWAYS wrong if they do not agree with you!

    My previous statements were stated as "facts" only because I really wanted them to be true. I didn't have any additional information as I do now. What I am presently saying is not speculation.
