I have a lot of stock in AMD as a company, and i've watched that stock go to shit. As far as I'm concerned, it's just lost money. I could care less if AMD gets back on its feet at this point.

I just want myself to be happy... so this is what I want. I want hammer to go through some more problems. Yup... more. I want them to delay it even further, forcing them to make a new stepping of barton and plummet its price. I win. I get to keep my socket A board, my expensive DDRI memory, my whole configuration... I get a cheap barton on a new stepping (higher clock capability) on my already stable 200+ mhz FSB motherboard. AMD loses as hammer is delayed and they wallow further in shame... but I don't care about them really. I just want to make me happy, and that would make me damn happy.
