Re: - It is a higher speed than AMD said they were going to use at .18u
- AMD is getting desperate because their .13u process is late


That's absolute nonsense. This product introduction was planned 6 months ago.

Look at the lower of these two viewgraphs presented by AMD 5 months ago at their analyst conference. It clearly shows a chip with a small speed increase (2100+ to 2200+) being available in April of 2002. Then a larger speed bump comes in July of 2002 (when Thoroughbred appears on shelves).

AMD has been perfectly on schedule with both the 2100+ and 2200+ introductions planned 6 months ago. You may have to expand the lower image in an editor to see it clearly.
