Tony - Re: " AMD hasn't built chip one with copper yet, at any freaking clock speed, and yet they come out with a prediction of when they'll have a chip 3X as fast as anything they have today! Talk about brass ba!!s­­­ Or is it Hail Mary time for them?"

You are 100% Correct.

It is Hail Mary time for AMD.

Let's face it. AMD made this deal with Motorola as an act of desperation. They are ADMITTING that they do not have the expertise, money or resources to develop technology in a manner to remain competitive with Intel.

Thus, they are "partnering" with Motorola - giving away something in return for a prayer - a chance - to catch up with Intel.

Remember - AMD is doing it's usual "spin city" routine - making a big hoopla out of an admission of near-defeat.

And the media let's them get away with it!
