<Re: "It is possible that during 6+ years on the drawing board, the design tools got so out of whack with the design itself that Intel can't validate Willy without building silicon. That would explain why there are rumors about silicon and yet, no "official" tape-out chest pounding."

That theory of your's kind of falls flat when you consider Intel did a public demonstration of Merced 3 weeks after first silicon. New architecture, new chipset, new operating system, new apps, new motherboard. 3 weeks.>

Say what? I was talking about Willy, not Merced.
