well we got sandbridge-e way before we got ivybridge, and going by how they have made em so far it makes sense really. sandy-E being the last gen tock and ivy being the current tick. going by that we should get the ivy-E tock next, not the Haswell tick then the the ivy-e tock.but as i see it should be tock(sandy-E) tick(ivy) tock(ivy-E) tick(Haswell) instead of how it pertayed as tock(sandy-e) tick(ivy) tick(Haswell) tock(ivy-E) so yeah what am i missing here? cause this does'nt seem to follow the tick-tock model?
sorry man but im not buying in to what this article is saying it seem's flawed, one things for sure research and developement is not dictated by the marketing depratment. and the only reason i could see things going this way is if haswell was aimed at the mobile computing market like laptops and net books and tablets. which is another way of putting the middle finger up at the enthusiat market. which if it's the case i will be boycoting haswell lol
