PB, <<What kind of pop do you estimate AMD to get?> Not much initially. .18 BE will allow scaling later on though. I expect a 1 speed grade improvement. IMHO.> You surprise me! Can you shed any details on why you think it is only going to be 1 speed grade given: - The die size shrinks from 184 to 104 should reduce a lot of the speed paths - The voltage will probably remain the same (unlike Katmai to CuMine change as I said earlier) - The process will be true 0.18 compared to a hybrid 0.25 - AMD probably found a few enhancements along the way What is wrong with this picture?
