Hello yourself! |

Revision D Sempron cpus in several speed grades, and apparently all revision E |
| 15 |
Semprons have had their 64-bit capabilities switched on. Check |
| 16 |
theinquirer.net and amdzone.com for the speed grade details. I don't and |
| 17 |
won't have first-hand experience with this, but this info can be checked out |
| 18 |
easily. Keep that open mind handy, folks! |
