Looks like Clawhammer was moved from 180nm Cu to 130nm SOI introduction. Either the design or clock projections have slipped forcing a riskier schedule.

Yes, with that new schedule, 180nm Clawhammer is dead. Looks like it will be brought up on a .13um (IBM?) SOI process next year. Sounds like this Barton product (laptops and desktops) is what IBM will be fabbing (how many?) for AMD. It's the .13um (IBM) SOI version of AMD's .13um Thoroughbred. If this comes before Clawhammer, the fabbing would likely have to start by the third quarter of this year at the latest. So the remapping of the AMD .13um (Thoroughbred) design into a .13um IBM SOI process would need to be completed by perhaps July. Tight scheduling.
