Re: For .13µ, I recall 80nm for AMD and 70nm for Intel.

That was a long time ago. AMD was originally not going to use 193nm for .13 and not use SOI.

They delayed their .13 implementation to incorporate both at the .13 node.

It wouldn't have made much sense to move from 248nm steppers to 193nm steppers and from plain wafers to SOI wafers and not reduce the minimum feature size - what would have been the point of all those changes?
