AMD's Budapest is late but it denies Barcelona is balked

A REPORT ON the Dow Jones wire confirmed that while the Budapest quad core chip will be delayed, Barcelona is still on time and will be rolled out this summer.

That follows earlier reports of Cray delaying a supercomputer because AMD was unable to ship a processor it was using on time.

But an AMD rep told the wire that Barcelona was still on target, despite claims from a financial analyst at the Computex show that this chip was likely to be delayed too.

Meanwhile, over at AMD Zone , Chris Tom reports there will be more pricecuts on AMD desktop CPUs on July 9th. µ
