According to a report that sites Taiwanese server manufacturers, AMD's Barcelona launch schedule may be pushed back.

Everything that seems to be coming from AMD really isn't good news. R600 was underperforming compared to the hype, they're laying off people and now this.

r600 could be getting beatin becuase of horrible drivers. Which is what it seems like.

Yah, AMD needs to get things into gear here. I'm staying a fanboi and keeping my Opty.

Why does the news item have a picture of what looks like a dvd duplication facility?

This has dented my workstation plans quite a bit. I might put in an order for an Intel platform tonight. Not a happy chap here.

AMD is not having a good time right now are they?

HourBeforeDawn · 19th May 2007, 05:19

okay I am loyal to AMD but enough is enough this is starting to really piss me off if they keep delaying EVERYTHING even the most loyal are going to start looking the other way >_<

I'm glad I didn't choose an AMD system, go intel
