Cirruslvr, Re "Doing that sure is MUCH easier and faster than coming out with a new stepping which requires a new ramp, and then a few months later coming out with ANOTHER stepping, that happens to also jack up the voltage even though the processor is 14% smaller, which requires a brand new ramp AGAIN. Oh, and did I mention these TWO new ramps are necessary in a capacity constrained enviroment?" Isn't there a some kind of a temperature issue here also re 1Gig ? JohnD
