Putting stample on me doesn't prove your ppints. I was hoping you could use constrictive arguments for your claims. Did you run out of arguments?

I don't know what they did in that time, I think they went back to drawing board trying to beat 2X5xx. It doesn't matter what they did, but they have wasted valuable time. Back then they had a chance to take the performance-crown. I don't think they can do the same today.

This "new" 6990 seams to be a repatriation of the last "mistake". Last time they they tried to beat 480, and they did a good job too, but they got a big surprised by 580. This time they are facing 2x560 or 2x570 (or 2x580 according to this unbelievable rumors ), do you think they have a chance to #1? I personally think 2x560 would beat/match it, but nvidia has other options too. that nasty delay cost AMD alot.
