just wondering about that TeraHertz transistor - is that an actual frequency or Intel is trying to mislead the public
just so that you know, individual transistors need to switch much faster than the frequency being implemented on the chip. even on a hyperpipelined cpu like the Pentium 4, there are still more than a few transistors per pipeline stage that need to propagate data on one edge of the cpu clock.
