"out of posts for the day"

Thank the lord for that. Enough hyping of Intel's supposed prowess on this board, better to do it on the ihub intel site.

intel has been hyping its future for months, even years. If they can't make a decent itanic then why oh why does anyone buy this "coming soon, the most wonderful x86 chip ever seen". intel went from being somewhat engineering based to being a marketing company. I don't believe any benchmarks of engineering samples - there's too many things that can go wrong. Those errata can bite you in the butt and the fixes can really change things.

Fundamentally intel lost its engineering talent and I see a future of screw ups.
