Sounds like AMD better start preparing another lawsuit because Intel is working on something very compelling that supersedes silicon, and we all know that means anti-competitive and illegal in Europe. As for chip design, Otellini said that silicon is running out of time as a semiconductor material, and that Intel will produce three more generations of silicon processors at best before moving on to new materials. Since Intel's tick-tock fab process shrink and refinement cycle takes two years per chip generation and it's currently between the tick and the tock with its Nehalem processors, we can extrapolate to guess that Intel might be planning on fabbing chips using innovative materials and processes sometime around 2017. Chipzilla has already produced chips using new materials, but Otellini declined to give more details. "It's cool. Trust me," he said. theinquirer.net
