Unless it is bad yield (which the INQ seems to suggest is NOT the reason AMD is doing this), why intentionally downgrade the performance of the chip?<BR/><BR/>We are talking servers, right? An area that can actually use MULTIPLE CORES, right? If you have a need for a tri-core server, than quad would be better no? (Or is there some magic SW that only works at 3 cores max?)<BR/><BR/>Having multiple SKU's?!? Try doing more clockspeeds! You know 1, 2, 4 cores is just not enough options...<BR/><BR/>I can see the AMD marketing team right now - Hey INtel can't do three cores, let's do it and call this superior technology? Oh and can you also paint the chips green? So we are going to take a part that cost the same amount as a quad core to make, fuse it and sell it for less money...BRILLIANT! Is there that little demand for quad core AMD chips?<BR/><BR/>Again if this is a yield thing it makes sense, but if it is fusing working cores, simply stupid...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2602471396566186819.post-57881331657250966372007-09-16T10:56:00.000+00:002007-09-16T10:56:00.000+00:00Hey DOC and GURU, it seems they can run these quad...Hey DOC and GURU, it seems they can run these quads on three wheels.

Wade Cooper, managing partner of the firm's Austin office, stated "Sue was the 'go to' lawyer for AMD on many of their most challenging projects—both within the U.S. and abroad—and very few lawyers in Austin have her depth of experience in the technology and international arenas. We think her addition puts Jackson Walker in a pre-eminent position to assist companies in this area with international and technology legal issues."<BR/><BR/>Snyder said, "I am very honored to join one of the most progressive, outstanding firms that has a vision for addressing the needs of companies now expanding globally. With Texas being the largest exporting state and technology products being the largest part of our exports, international matters are becoming crucial to many. It is with pleasure that I will be able to serve many different types of industries in this endeavor."<BR/><BR/>Snyder is well known in the legal community of the technology industry in the U.S. and abroad. Her areas of expertise include corporate, environmental and international law, including government relations. Her responsibilities for AMD over the last ten years involved a wide range of projects and legal issues both domestically and worldwide, such as dealing with China on regulatory and permitting issues, establishing a public/private partnership for semiconductor manufacturing in India, dealing with import/export and antitrust issues in Europe, negotiating incentives for the construction of AMD's $3.0 billion facility in New York and working with governments in China, India, Brazil, Russia, Europe, Singapore, Taiwan, Korea, Japan and others.</I><BR/> <BR/>Asset Lite, alright: human assets that is!

Now you know what the D in AMD stands for.<BR/><BR/>And if that fails try the old bait and switch - look at these 2.5 and 3.0GHz benchmarks and simulations - but please buy our, um hum, "energy efficient" 2.0GHz product.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
