Last time I looked at the stats on market share, X58 and P55 held a low percentage compared to P45 and X48......only a small percentage of computer enthusiasts run out and buy the latest and greatest when the have perfectly good gear at home already.

Mandatory 2 years support from release date would be a great idea.
well it would make since because most car manufacturers and motorcycle manufacturers are on two year cycles anyways but the difference is you can still get parts support after the new body style comes.
