Dan - <Will the die size increase>

Willy is a big die. I have to refrain from actual figures. The original Pentium was big, the PPRO was big, Willy is big. Shrinks and compactions will obviously occur over time.

We will have to see if the performance benefit is worth the Si real estate. I happen to believe it might (be worth it).
