Marvell and Mai Logic working towards PPC970 support?

[JoannaK]

Kennyr: well it woudl be a kinda quantum leap. But in theory it's possible.

Personally I belive a lot more capabilities of Marvell, they have lot of experience of high speed serial bus:es (like Gigaether and SATA) and a provenly working DDRram controller and MPX support on their existing chipset.

But we'll see what happens. Anyway this is coog chance for PPC to become efficient enough to realisticly compete with X86.

Electro Kids? ah well..   :-P

Next time.. try to find some fact before posting. Like what those companies have done so far, who uses their products and what their annual sales figures are.

And about X86.vs.PPC .. way out of this thread ...

Electro:

Facts,, I have DataSheets of Marvell Northbridges, and I have some experience on reading and understanding those kind of papers.

Proving above. Considering various NDA restrictions I Won't send them to you... Neither can I send you any up-to-date reference of my recent works (specs+ numbers manufactured) beoynd fact that they are based on Motorola PPC. Pitty, but I rather keep  my work than try to win  these pointless net figths that seem to be going on and on.

Electro:

Gee?  So, mind telling me what's your real problem behind these rant and instulting attempts. can't handle the fact there are plenty  people smarter than you?  :-D

And like I said.. Showing something to people who would not understand it anyhow ain't worth losing job/clents. If you don't understand that much there ain't much left to discuss..
