Milo,

I wouldn't mind if you explained in more technical detail about the timing issues

The fundamental speeds of 0.18u transistors at room temperature are too slow to do any kind of meaningful work in 333 picoseconds. There is no way that the Willamette integer unit is running at 3 GHz in 0.18u at room temperature. Whatever they today did was something else other than what they tried to make it appear.
