Jim - <Is this good or bad for AMD?> Both, IMHO. By getting to a .18ish front end by this point in time has allowed them to scale MHz to the levels you see now. What's bad is AMd is de facto advertising this a .25 process, giving the impression of super MHz scalability with the design that may not in reality be there going forward, disappointing some of those making the wildest speculations on MHz I've seen. MOT is currently doing the same thing with the G4, only in reverse, having .18 gates and calling it .18, but with a .25 back end, probably so they won't be perceived as being behind on their Copper Process getting to .18.
