80Watt. Sure there are ways to due with heat, liquid O2
just come to mind! At what cost? That is the real questions.
They have some significant patents on cooling (in fact,
some of Exp magic is their cooling technique). But where
are they going to go from here. I don't think BiCMOS is
in their future. Well, they can sure build a uprocessor
on CMOS but they will be competeting with Moto and IBM.

Looking at their processor, the first thing I will improve
is to use CMOS and then squeeze more memory (L1, L2 cache)
into the processor. There are ways to get higher performance
and Moto and IBM are looking into it with better technology,
in house fab (should I mention they also have the some
of the most advanced fab). And don't forget we are also in
a shrinking market and who knows how long this market (PowerPC)
will last. Why would someone invest in a startup with
a shrinking market, big and good competitor(s) and unstable
partner? Why? Good that Exp are not a public company, yet!
