Hi,

there are also rumors about a new AMD chip over there:

http://www.planet3dnow.de/cgi-bin/newspub/viewnews.cgi?id=1207000861

Everything in German though, but you can use a translator or watch the pictures.

It seems that it is based on an redesigned K6 core. It is probably a first member of AMDs energy efficient "Bob" core family.

cheers ;-)

Maybe what you heard as "Thunderstorm" is "Firestream," which was discussed at SC'07. See http://ati.amd.com/products/streamprocessor/specs.html
I'm finding it almost impossible to know what is an april fools joke or not today...
