Scumbria,

You wrote "Apparently the Willy die size is not much larger than PIII."

I consider this one of the biggest wild cards here. I've heard conflicting information on this. At this point, nothing between 110 and 200 mm^2 at .18 micron would surprise me. It is my understanding that Intel has not officially published a number for this yet.

You also wrote "I think that Willy in 0.13u will be faster than any K7 based products."

Which neatly evades my question.<G> Substitute "will" to "probably will" and I agree with you. Of course, the next question is when will Intel have non-trivial .13 facilities? The last roadmap I saw didn't show that until near the end of 2001. 2001 could be an incredibly profitable year for AMD...

Best Regards,

Mike
