Barcelona Is Not Launching Monday

CPUs Thanks to Victor Garbin for a couple of links. One to a French site with a video interview with a couple of AMD guys. In the interview they quickly get to Barcelona. They talk about how it is not a secret, and that in the US it was announced this past Monday. Victor also sent this link to Tech Powerup where they have decided somehow from this video said that Barcelona launches on Monday. Wow. News to us. Actually this is why you don't get your AMD news anywhere else than AMD. Here is what the European guy said in English that is good, but not perfect.
On the other side we are working on the K10. It is not a secret anymore. In September we already discuss about that, Barcelona has been already announced just on Monday in US.
It is pretty clear that AMD was making the rounds last Monday with some websites that could be called corporate, and largely unimportant. And that focused primarily on Barcelona. This is not an indication of a Barcelona launch on Monday. I do not think that an obscure French overclocking site would be were AMD decides to announce that oh yeah, Barcelona is coming out Monday. That would be quite the paper launch. I hope this sufficiently squashes this before it becomes rumor.
