Chuck, This article, techweb.com says "The company is already sampling 1-GHz EV6 chips at the 0.18-micron level, which they will ramp into production by next year. Compaq plans to add copper interconnect technology to boost performance up to 1.25 GHz. Will Dresden be involved here? Mani

You were right. By this time next year we'll be at 2GHz chips. Did you notice from AMD's web site: "Question: How did AMD reach 1GHz so much earlier than your projected introduction date? Answer: AMD?s process and manufacturing abilities, coupled with the AMD Athlon? processor's advanced seventh-generation architecture has enabled AMD to reach this significant industry milestone, and successfully enable a leading manufacturer to bring 1GHz AMD Athlon systems to the marketplace in March." I wonder if this manufacturer will be Gateway and will the manufacturer have a restricted or largely unlimited supply of 1GHz chips?
