Looks like AMD has taken the wraps off of its budget Sempron line a few days
early.

http://www.internetnews.com/ent-ne [...] hp/3387051

There are two distinct lines of Semprons, several K7-based Socket A and a
K8-based Socket 754. The K8 Semprons have their 64-bit capabilities
disabled. The K7's range in performance from 2200+ to 2800+, while the K8 is
at 3100+.

Are you the unofficial spokesman for AMD? Why is this posted to the Intel
site... just curious.

My my, somone has their panties in a twist! You don't consider AMD worthy
of talk in an Intel "Site" (I don't think CSI is supported by Intel, nor
is the Usenet a "site" of any reasonable description). OTOH, you might
just learn something from Mr. Khan (though I am stretching belief here).

....not to mention this is also posted to CSIPHC where all us Intel haters
hang out. ;-)

In short, you're nothing but a top-posting maroon!

What's a "maroon"? Webster says: " a dark red " and "a descendant of such
a slave".
Well, I may be a "maroon", but you are clearly a retard.

I'm addressing this to all 3 readers of comp.arch who aren't Bugs
Bunny cartoon fans. When Bugs wanted to denigrate the intelligence of
another cartoon character, he would **intend** to say "What a moron!"
but what actually came out (in the cartoon) would be "What a maroon!",
suggesting some ambiguity as to whose sagacity should be impugned. I
believe that this is the sense in which Keith was writing.

If you seriously want to challenge someone's intellectual dexterity, I
suggest sweetly inquiring if they rode the short bus to school. ;-)

The Intel haters and AMD lovers should post to that group rather than
flooding comp.sys.intel with propoganda. It's to the point now where you
can't talk nor get any information on Intel processors and architecture
without the constant bashing. There should be a
comp.religious.processor.wars or something more suitable for that stuff.

It is not a matter of bashing, it is a matter of explaining to people
that they should research the alternatives first, then decide if an
Intel processor is a good choice. In most instances, an AMD
processor will provide better performance at each price point.

No if we want to learn about AMD we can go research it. We don't need you
AMD lovers cramming it down our throats. If I want a space heater for I
computer I would have bought a AMD years ago. Now Intel has the prescotts
which are even better space heaters than the AMD's so once again Intel is
superior.

True I just want a computer so I will stick to my Northwood.

But tha only works in perhaps only one culture/context no? At least
Bugs have got a bigger coverage ppP

I'm sure you can find an "Intel site", where you can conduct iSeances in
peace, if that's what you have in mind. As already pointed out to you,
this is Usenet, the comp.sys... hierarchy specifically. If Outlook
doesn't have an "ignore thread" feature, you could also consider using a
real newsreader.

Ok, you're saying, "I'm stupid and wish to remain so"? Or more like, "my
mind is made up; don't confuse me with the facts"?

You didn't research before you bought and now don't want to be told that
you made a mistake? Burry your head deeper. The world will ignore you.
