Charles - <I am surprised that people were expecting 30% improvement once upon a time. I have never heard anything higher than 20%.>

As I've said, IBM has a way of hyping the benefits of it's process technology. Even now, some guy is gushing that IBM's Cu process will "enable double the frequency." I consider that a gross exaggeration.

I believe they do this more for marketing purposes. I do have respect for IBM process tech, but I find some of the claims they put out for mass consumption some what galling.
