Interesting info, though some of it seems to be in conflict with what we've heard before.
The pricing looks particularly interesting. If the 2.6GHz parts are indeed $599 then 4x4 could be quite a decent alternative to Kentsfield. The motherboards will, obviously, still be a bit more expensive (understatement of the year) than on the Intel side but the one Asus motherboard that we've looked at screams extreme high-end. I wonder if we'll ever see a cheaper alternative with a more-pedestrian chipset.
Another interesting thing is that an AMD EMEA representative is calling RevB/K8L K10. I suppose it doesnt matter what the damn thing is called since its specs are already set but I wonder just WHEN did it become K10, since its beginning or rather recently?
