Scrumbia:

<<These are very positive developments. The rapid ramp up in K6-2 clock speeds is a two edged sword however. How much more low hanging fruit is there for the engineers to pick? Have they already resolved all the easy to fix speed paths? Is a significant process improvement required to keep moving up?>>

I guessed Intel already picked all their low hanging fruits 6 months ago. It will be difficult for them to get higher speed without another major shrink and changes in the process flow.

Your questions are absurd. Would you like AMD not pick the low hanging fruits and still producing 350MHz?
