Mr Meathead Let me tell you that board level simulation/sysnthesis may have been a hot field 20 years ago but its just not a big deal anymore. Its a well known problem, you can get pretty good tools off the shelf etc. Also the low speed/2-4 layer boards that pc manufacturers make are impressive only because they are manufacturable, cheap and fairly reliable. You are not exactly breaking new grounds in transmission line analysis! ;). So you are claiming that Dell helps intel in testing the electrical specs of its parts. You also think that this is rocket science! imho its NOT! <<This means designing a system before A0 silicon arrives. No easy task my friend. >> My friend, almost all leading edge development takes place before you get silicon. People design systems based on databook descriptions, simulation models and gate array implementations all the time. It is sometimes impressive when you successfully desgin a system based on revolutionary parts. In an evolutionary architecture like the X86 it is not such a big deal. I know other manufacturers like DEC CPQ do the same thing. <<Dell's technological contributions to the industry as well as their engineering greatness go entirely unnoticed by the non-technical. You know nothing. >> tsk tsk. In my ignorance, I think that verifying operating voltage range of the microprocessor is SO hard!
