Has any company other than Intel mastered 65 nm fabrication at this time ?

From reading, it seems that Intel does not rely completely on automated design tools, but also employs brain-power design methods. My guess is that since other companies do not have their own extensive process research, they rely on the software tool-sets provided by the collaberative effort. Which apparently are not as good as Intel's engineers.
