Are you guys even reading the article? Its NOT a quad core processor! Its a chip package with TWO SEPERATE DUAL CORE CHIPS mounted on it... Get real... This is just a marketing ploy to say "yeah, we came out with quad core first". AMD isnt taking the "fakey" quad core route. When their quad ships it will be a single chip with four cores on it.
