AMD Barcelona K10 gets B2 stepping

FUD Zilla writes AMD has new B2 stepping Barcelona chips which seem to be a bit better than the B0s which it showed at Computex behind closed doors:
We also learned that B0 can go faster than 1.6 GHz but that it was a very buggy revision. Now our sources are talking about B2 revision that is suppose to save the day and this one is expected any day now.

The same people also indicated that Barcelona will either be the best thing that even happened to AMD or it will be doomed to be the next Netburst. Unfortunately it looks more like the later one, at least from this perspective.
