Joe, Re: "I said that the spending is the penalty for inefficiency of the P4 design." The size of the Pentium 4 die being a "penalty" is a common misconception. In reality, Pentium 4 is smaller than die from other Intel micro-architectures in the past. In fact, once shrunk, the second generation Pentium 4 will be smaller than the second, third, and fourth generation P6 cores (being Klamath, Deschutes, and Katmai). Only at .18u did Intel really have a small P6 die with Coppermine. The problem that most people have is that they tend to compare Intel's die size to AMD's, and try to draw conclusions about cost. This comparison is hardly apples to apples. wbmw
