Yougang,

<Care to say more? >

I have been getting bits and pieces of info over the last 10 days about this program. Initially it sounded like a design problem but the more I hear the more it sounds like Intel has a project that is (or was) out of control. To put it succinctly, my belief based on what I heard so far is that people who think what happened is a simple schedule slip are mistaken. So, I would take any tape out date that gets thrown around with a grain of salt. This is a "show me" thing.
Just imagine this: any slips from current forecasts means, Wilamette may have to compete with K8 or get thrown out in favor one of the dozen or so program that Intel is working on now.
