- Abit NF7-S nForce2 motherboard review
A little nForce2 action today with the latest AMD World Abit NF7-S review from which we skilfully extracted the following: "Perhaps the ABIT offers that bit more than the competitors we have looked at in the past and certainly the audio and SATA inclusive options make it a worthwhile consideration".

- Sun: no Opteron plan at all...
Ace's Hardware has the epilog of one of the oldest rumor in the business: "I met at CEBIT with Brian Healy, Nathalie Nann and Joachim Steffen from SUN and they were able to confirm to me that SUN has no Opteron plans at all. The strategy of SUN is to offer datacenters a total solution: low cost x86 blade servers run the applications that are the most cost effective with 32 bit work while the 64 bit UltraSPARC processors find a home in the big fat 64 bit servers".

- Enchanted April
Opteron hymn at InfoWorld where Tom Yager is lyrical about new AMD's weapon to come out in April: "Microsoft has repeatedly stated that it strongly prefers AMD's 64-bit architecture to Intel's. Opteron is not stuck in the same spot as Intel at the launch of Itanium. Intel had to wait for Microsoft to announce its Itanium-specific port of Windows . Opteron already runs 32-bit Windows at full speed, while other 64-bit CPUs must use emulation to run most Windows software"
