<What is your take on Palomino?>

A lot of nonsense about Palomino has been posted here. In particular that it is 6-8 months late. Palomino was scheduled for March after the tape-out. So it slipped just a month. It takes time to qualify a new core.

Another point is that T-bird had multiple shrinks. It is amazing that people expect Palomino to start with the same aggressive transistors from the start. I don't have exact information but I would guess that Palo MP is now where T-bird was at 1GHz as far as the transistor size is concerned.
