Kevin,

Just what do you think will happen to Bartons price when the Hammer is released? If it's ever released.

I'm afraid AMD is going to go under. They shot themselves in the head not the foot this time. There are many who have waited through many past delays only to now be told, "Wait, we'll release it in Sept." But many are no longer going to wait, they will up grade, and the upgrade will be a P4.

I've waited to build with a top speed Barton, after the Hammer made them a reasonable or cheap chip. Don't know now if I'll wait that much longer.
