Re: "What do you imply when talking about AMD "short-cut
designing"? "

Amy is probably referring to, among other things, the fact that AMD's AthWIPE burns twice as much POWER as Intel's Coppermine at the same frequency.

Hence, Intel's Coppermine is getting all the prestige notebook design-wins.

And AMD's AthWIPE is getting ZERO notebook design wins.

Since I am not an engineer, others can say this better than me, i.e.
