Tenchusatsu, <AMD was the one who had the rocky transition to 0.25 um,>
I think there is a common confusion here. When
the press (and you blindly repetiting it) says
"rocky transition", it creates an image that
AMD has had difficulties in launching of the
new 0.25 technology. This is not true, according
to known facts.

AMD was almost instantly successful in 0.25 -
the current store shelves are the proof. What was
difficult was exactly opposite to that transition:
difficult for AMD was to STAY in 0.35 and
push it to the sweet market spot of 233 MHZ
(at that time). This has nothing to do with
"transition", and the implication you want to make
about "transition to 0.18" has no grounds.

<I'll let Paul reply to this statement.>
Sure, what is the panorama out his garage door?
Hopefully something better than "Huh?"
