AMD held a demonstration of its new quad-core, 45nm Opteron processor, Shanghai, on Wednesday to show a live demo of the working product in front of the assembled press.
AMD had seen its first effort at quad-core, the 65nm Barcelona, dogged with delivery problems and other issues. The chosen venue for the debut was a datacenter belonging to the second largest ISP in Europe, Strato, in Berlin.

I try to use AMD as much as I can because Microsoft and Intel are too cozy. Way too cozy and I feel that the ever escalating spiral of technology between the two companies is too "neat."
AMD may have had some set backs but there Back in Black and never count them out ! I have an all AMD clocks in just under the top Intel , realy can not tell the difference and the integration is better . After there acquisition its only a matter of time before they pass Intel .'Shanghai' just shows the focus is back on CPU . Also have a Dell Intel quad 4 . Both together cost less then my 486.
