AMD Delays Hammer

TeJarz writes "C|Net reports that their next processor (Hammer) has been rescheduled from its original Q4 release to Q1 2003. To quote C|Net: 'The delays are occurring to accommodate the release of a new version of Athlon with a 333MHz bus, said Crank. Current Athlons come with a 200MHz bus and 256KB of secondary cache.' Let's hope this doesn't get moved again."

    And what are you?

    Obsessive-compulsive? A nag? An asshole?

    Do you really care so much about that one-liner? Elaborate.

    486SX? Ha! Back in my day we just had sticks and rocks for computers. Heck, each rock was a pixel and I had to get an awful lot to make a picture. You whipper-snappers don't know the meaning of screen refresh rate when you're dealing with rocks.

    I didn't have any of those fancy schmancy optical mice. No! Back in my day we had to use real mice. And then they'd run away so you had to use the stick as a pointer. And you don't know the meaning of upgrade. Heck, I'd have to walk uphill in the snow to get a new stick to use. It wasn't one of them fancy Maple sticks. No, it was one of those that were green and had thorns and moss growing on it.

    You young people make me sick. Give me the good ol' days I say.
