I've been getting these messages on a number of my systems with late generation AMD processors indicating that something in my processor won't work with all of the new work units (except Famous) being sent out.
Is this correct? What is the cause - use of AVX instructions? When will WUs be available for AMD processors?

FYI, I am an all AMD install and my workload on 12 systems is rapidly falling off. Please advise ASAP.
Thanks,
BillN

The current models other than FAMOUS, are only for Windows.

Other models are in (or will be in soon), beta testing. The hold up is the absence of programmers, as per the News thread.

More FAMOUS models will be available "soon". The hold up here, is that Hiro hasn't heard from the climatologists using the data as to what they want looked at next.

Thanks for the quick response. Please consider my systems as a testing base when the new models come in.
