    Anand, man, i love ur technical prowess and ur clear, yet attractive writing style and as a result enjoy ur weblog immensely but please man, stop rubbing ur perfect marriage into our noses. It makes us unmarried blokes so sad and envious of u. So no more Vinnie, ok?

    thats not really fair though... she is the love of his life, he has the right to be so happy! it would almost be like him no longer talking about AMD or something... would want that!

    Well, what's your problem? It's his blog and he can talk about anything he wants. You being jealous of him is the most stupid thing I've heard. From what I can tell, he's very very very happy with her, so he can write whatever he wants.

    You do have one that loves you. She's just rubber and inflatable.

    hard to do when you say you dont ant to hear any of that love-ie-dovie stuff... Girls kinda like that stuff... (probably just shot myself in the foot...)

    I know you are most likely pressed for time when you travel, but consider taking the high-speed ICE train from Frankfurt to Dresden next time. Try to absorb some culture. And for God's sake, take a day to go an hour or so further eastward to Berlin, then fly back to JFK from there! I have spent some time in Dresden. It is home to some of the most impressive museums in Germany as well as the new "Glass" VW factory. All of which are worth a visit. Of course a day would not be enough in Berlin, but at least you'd be given a glimpse. If you ever need contacts at the German government's "Besucherdienst" (Federal Visitor's Service) to get some first-class tour guides, feel free to PM me.

    bviously I was here on business, not vacation, so the focus of the short trip was 100% AMD.


    yeah right ;-)

    Welcome to Europe, where we haven't (yet) gone crazy about privacy and security ;)
    I have to share your feelings AMD is not showing their full hand of cards, but perhaps they're not in a position now to be doing that. They can just cash in A64 and secretively come up with something Intel won't come up with. Or Intel did get the message and they're going full-force now.
    Ah well, time will tell.

    Intel had the need to communicate about anything that would improve their products. Whether that would mean a big step forward or just minor steps.

    If you look at the global roadmap there has to be something going on at AMD's R&D.My guess is they have something up their sleeve that will stirr the coffee at Intel offices once again.
