Re: "Yes. It is certainly significantly better than having it take up capacity all through the system, wouldn't you say? Sure, it isn't free, but then no type of quality control is. But that doesn't mean it wouldn't be beneficial." If you think it through, AMD's attempt at SOI has more pit falls than you can shake a stick at - EXPENSIVE new equipment - SLOW throughput - new device models required for design - silicon damage and leakage... AMD is in for some kind of fun.
