    AMD doesn't need to give anything to a review site. They can simply release the information on a slide at some future event. Let's hope for the sake of sane CPU prices that AMD can get something out the door before September 2011. I'm personally going to SB myself as I'm not going to wait for AMD. I had a spark of enthusiasm in the other AMD thread, but after seeing some SB numbers, that spark is extinguished.

    As quoted by LowRun......"So, we are one week past AMD's worst case scenario for BD's availability but they don't feel like communicating about the delay, I suppose AMD must be removed from the reliable sources list for AMD's products launch dates"
