Re: Care to provide a link to that prediction? Does IBM fab anything over one gigahertz right now?

However, you may have noticed that I followed that post with a smile. Your point about IBM on .18 is a worthy one.

But, the fact remains that AMD is putting a similar process into production (if all goes well) within a year.

IBM today unveiled the technology that will drive its PowerPC and Power processors down to 0.13 micron - and speeds up to 10GHz.

Dubbed 'CMOS 9S', the fabrication technology brings together a number of innovations made by Big Blur over the last couple of years. So into the process go copper interconnects, silicon-on-insulator transistors and low-k dielectric insulation.
