Re: do try to communicate and disclose that Coppermine will scale in raw clock speed..

Hey, I was saying 800MHZ coppermine by Q4 last August, and you were trying to argue me out of it!

RE <<<Intel exec's have and do try to communicate and disclose that Coppermine will scale in raw clock speed. I will back them up on this. It won't go forever, but it'll certainly not give up the ghost any time soon.>>>

It sounds exciting....I looking forward to cumine's debut.

BTW I am curious. I keep hearing that to get to 1 G, a chip will need at least copper interconnects...now its come up again with L. Smith from AMD saying the same thing. However, if I remember correctly, you thought copper was not necessary to hit that speed.

Can you or anyone else on the thread explain the divergence of opinion on this issue?

Thanks.
