[This Causes an Error]

AMD is literally the trashiest semiconductor company that I follow.

I think the 8 core Avoton is 2-4x faster than Opteron X1250 already...

Oh my!

AMD thinks they will have 25% of the server market by 2019?

LOL, that means increasing their current share by about 20X. :-D

I don't see how anyone could present that BS with a straight face.

'By 2019 ARM commands 25% of the server market'

Hey why stop at 25, if you are making complete BS numbers up, go for big ones, 50, 60 etc LOL.

Everything else in that slide was a complete fantasy too. So this is how far the company that designed x86-64 and built K7 and K8 has sunk, to make up projections that have less than 0.1% chance of coming true ?! Shame on the company that Noyce helped start, shame. They really jumped the shark with this one.

AMD give Seattle a SPECIntRate of 80 which does not compare well against Avoton's 106 especially when it is also at higher power, 25W to 20W. A57 better have some killer apps it's good at otherwise AMD will struggle to get 0.25% of the market with this never mind 25% ;-)
