John, I've heard Hammer will be 2Ghz out of the gates.

I'll see your 2 GHz and raise...

It is getting almost too Buck Rogers even for a speed freak. At these speeds, there will be more than one clock active on a clock net at a time even at the chip metalization level.

The big mystery is: WTH is the Clawhammer? Is it a single CPU version of Sledgehammer. Does it have the 64 bit extensions? Will it arrive in Q3? Will it arrive on 0.15 or 0.13u process? Will Clawhammer start at 2 GHz or will that require Sledgehammer?
