Bill- Well, that bad layout means more clusters and thus hotspots

That was Ali Chen's explanation, not mine. I don't know if this is correct.

That means that Intel has more to lose with SOI as the extra oxide layer hinders heat transfer.

Might be true...

This also means that Intel has more to gain from Si28 epitaxial layers. If you form an insulating layer and then deposit an epi layer on it how do you get the epi layer to have a perfect ccrystal structure?, etc.

Who knows? I am NOT an expert on this stuff. Sorry man...
