RE:"I don't think the fact that Intel's ahead on process technology should be taken as an AMD "screwup." Intel beat them to 0.18 micron by about the same margin. shrug If AMD comes out with 0.13 in six months, then they have successfully executed a normal development cycle." Why can't AMD be on .13u at about the same time as Intel? Isn't the equipment available? RE:"Intel's process technology has more than once pulled Intel through tough times..." Intel has the best. No question. Not sure about the tough times. Intel could just deliver he goods in a rising market. RE:"Now, as to the horsies and SMP... You may have a point there. Of course, given the choice of horse breeds and types espoused by AMD for their chips, I'm not surprised they've had issues.." You're saying AMD bit off too much with the Mustang or Palomino? How so? RE:"Fingolfen <-- proud owner of purebred Arabians..." Used to own one. Jim
