SCUMbria - Re: "On the other hand- how on earth did AMD get K7 done so quickly? Clearly there is a piece missing from the K7 story."

2 1/2 years is quick?

According to Dirk, AMD started K7 design in January 1997, got first silicon in June 1998 (18 months) and it is almost the END of JUNE, 1999 and they still haven't released the K7 - 30 months after the project started.
