WATSONYOUTH, I think it is safe to say that Scumbria knows details of preliminary results from either Intel's or AMD's 0.13 process. (EDIT - or someone else's.) I suspect that at 0.13u, noise is a big problem especially since the voltage swings are getting very small. But that is just a guess off the top of my head. Certainly the transistors themselves should be faster, but there may be other "system" issues that spoil the party. Someone else made the point that AMD stands to gain more because their devices are power limited and smaller geometries with lower voltages should definitely lower power. Scumbria has been mocking Intel a lot lately, to the point where I thought he was being hyper-AMDroid, but maybe he knows something we don't. Petz
