Wouldn't this naming scheme seem to corrolate with how they handled the POWER4 and hence GP-UL? Can we expect Dual Core during 1H 2005? What about ondie memory controllers do you think that will make it in the POWER5 derivative? I'm just razzin' you for more info but I'm always keen on hearing any speculation. It's fun to me.
hmurchison, GR is a different story...

Antares is Power4 based. There was a time when a dual-core GPUL was the only plan (as mentioned on the NMR linked above), although that changed for various reasons...

As for planned dates, Protos to Apple Aug/2004 and Oct/2004, Prod Jan/2005... as for Apple's plan, that I do not know...

Is it possible to post attachments here?

BTW, the link you refer to is live at http://www.fz-juelich.de/zam/files/d...4_arch.2up.pdf
