Patting myself on the back.

STATEMENT I MADE ON ANOTHER THREAD. Similar information is now surfacing.
***************
As to Prescott. I know that come 1Q 2004 the 3.8 & maybe even the 3.6 will be more of a paper launch if announced and that the actual chips will not be available to anyone looking to buy one. I suspect Intel could produce a Prescott at 3.4 in decent quantity. But talking to a few people they still dont believe Intel can get much higher than that and have the processor be stable. Hot Spots, Current Leakage, and something I never heard of are all suspected to be the problem. All pointing back to strained silicon issues and design flaws. Yup Intel can make a mistake its called a learning curve as they attempt to move toward newer technologies.
***************
JUST CLEARING MY CREDIBILITY THAT SOME TOOK ME AS BS'ing.
I am not trying to sling mud at Intel.
Its that I think if your waiting for Prescott your going to be dissapointed. And with Tejas being pushed back to 2005 means AMD has a year to run without competition from Intel. A year of 64 bit CPU's could mean disaster for Intel as 64 bit will develop a good solid foundation.
I expect some very dirty tactics to come from Intel over the next year.
This is not a Mudsling this is an Investors view. Personal view as it is Expect Intel, Dell, and HP to lose a good amount of Market share to IBM and other smaller companies carrying Opteron Processors.
