<It seems to me that there are several risks with Willamette:>

Here are couple of other risks:

- Wilamette may need to be in 0.13 to scale well (mostly a power, yield issues) [By the way I got my first negative report on 0.13 recently - one of my sources is telling me a slip to Q4 is possible. If that happens AMD has much better chance of MHz parity or leadership going into Christmas]

- Wilamette has a lot of interesting circuits that are going to require DV that may put some interesting blocks along the way

- And finally, Wilamette definitely needs 0.13 to attain volumes. So, eve if everything goes absolutely perfectly, real volumes (tens of Mu) may not occur until 2001.
