Admittedly I'm no cpu architect but I can't help feeling these statements are woefully understating the reality of what Bobcat and Ontario delivers.

For the power-consumption envelope and performance envelope, I was under the impression that Bobcat as a cpu core, and Ontario as a CPU+GPU product, was/is revolutionary.

But he's talking about Llano.

Lol, totally missed that...yeah, I would agree with his statements insofar as they pertain to Llano.

I'm flummoxed that JFAMD stated BD was never intended to be a fusion product, I thought AMD had BD-based fusion products on their roadmap for next year.

@Idontcare,

yeah me too, I was pretty sure that I read somewhere on some slide that it was gonna happend for APUs getting bulldozer cores.

The next gen 8-18w APUs will just get a "enhanced" (tock?) version of what they already use though.

Maybe next gen Llano will have bulldozer cores? I hope so anyways.

I believe he was referring to the fact that AMD didn't think Bulldozer should be used for an APU right from the start. Their first generation notebook/desktop APUs were meant to be K10.5 based and then the second generation of APUs is scheduled to be Bulldozer+ based.

They do. He meant the current design. Next year's core is not codenamed "Bulldozer", it is an enhanced version.
