Ted, it seems your premise is that converting to copper is something everybody wants and needs to do immediately so Intel must be late in completing this necessary step. Your premise is wrong. Intel stated a long time ago that they had no need to convert to copper before the .13u generation. They are not late doing what they don't need to do. EP, no, Intel has said they are late and have blamed it on the slowness of the equipment makers......lately, its seems that Intel is very good at the blaming game. As for the need to convert to cu, many tech experts believe that moving to cu will help improve product performance. I would think Intel agrees with this supposition since it is spending millions if not billions to convert . So my question is: "why later than sooner"? Is this another bad execution move on Intel's part? ted
