    When you say "launches", d'you mean "begins to advertise?"

    It's probably just a Paper Launch, so the information is out there, plus reviews will start to trickle through soon enough. Part availability probably depends upon the manufacturers getting their shiny new Server Setups build to sell them.

    I say what I mean and I mean what I say: you can buy them right now from AMD. Granted, only if you're ordering several 1,000-unit trays, but still.

    Does this mean that they'll start rubbish, but finish quite high? And that most of them will crash? Seems like the sort of thing that happens with Abu Dhabi.

    No, they'll start really strong, and run out of steam have way through a given task! ;)
