AMD's mobile cpu OAKVILLE.

[GreenLantern]

I think it was announced as shipping last month. But what companies are selling them? And do you think it is worth the wait? The current athlon xp-m is just a modified athlon xp. The new oakville shrinks down to 90nm die size, should be cheaper to produce, cooler, and more efficient.
Opinions?

interesting.... first news I've heard of this, I'm curious as well.

just did a check, the oakville is NOT an XP mobile proc, it's a 64 mobile and those are now everywhere. I think you got things confused.

I did have those names confused. But not in the way I'd like.
Where are you checking?
I think the chips out are Athlon 64 Mobiles. Based on the Clawhammer (130nm).
I don't know what they are naming the new Athlon 64 Mobiles based on the Oakville (90nm) but that's what I meant by the "new" cpu.
