Re: "My point is still the same. INTC will not be using copper for a year, therefore AMD has 12months more experience using COPPER, it doesn't matter to me if it's 180nM or 130nM."

Milo have you noticed that AMD has certainly spent a very long time supposedly "perfecting" their copper process. It doesn't look to me as though it is very perfect, seeing as it's still missing.

milo, I think you miss my point, or choose to ignore it. Whatever. For a whole host of reasons, I believe the response to this simplistic argument, is something along the lines of BFD. If you think this is a huge advantage for AMD, fine.

I reiterate, Intel has been working with Cu for a few years now.
