Small typo: "Each Shanghai core has 512 MB of L2" => 512 KB

Lets hope AMD survives the downturn #

Otherwise Intel will have the x86 market to itself and that'll probably be it as far as innovation goes - at least until another large competitor comes along.

512 MB of L2 cache memory? #

These sound nice #

I've got some old 200 series, and I held off on upgrading to Barcies. These look fun though. I may be persuaded.

If AMD does have problems, their FAB's will not be idle. 90nm MIPS and ARM SoC's compete with current Atom CPU's. 45 and 32nm versions will give Intel a run for their money.
