Paul,

The K7 took AMD quite a long time to design and they are still a LONG WAY from manufacturing it !

Horrible. Just horrible.

Even Merced - designed completely from the ground up - only took ABOUT 5 years to design - including complete definition of the EPIC architecture.

Fry's is having a blowout sale on Merced systems this weekend.

Paul,
The P6 core was in the works in 1992. When did we see the first Pentium Pro? Pentium II? Pentium III?

Paul,

Do you have any idea when Willamette was started?
