The discussion right now is about "IPC," which is quite relevant to bulldozer since this is the one area AMD is lagging heavily (and is only competitive by ramping up frequency and adding more cores, plus aggressive pricing) IPC is very relevant imo.
i dont complain often, but what caught my attention was how quickly it was derailed. notice the first thing you said was that its AMD fanboys that are crying, instead of pointing out reasons for keeping it open, you decided to start your post by attacking a group of people.

and i dont see discussions. i dont see anyone talking about design ideas to make things better. all i see is people trying to point out that what they have is better than what others have, a battle of epeens.
