Beamer - Re: "There is also the fact that different designs will take different advantage of a given process. Who's to say that the Athlon or K8 will receive as much benefit from SOI as have chips from Motorola or IBM? "

You don't know how accurate your comments are.

Several months ago, AMD had to buy SOI Software design help from IBM to help them design their SOI products on their MOTOROLA process !!

The design issues - with SOI - are very extreme - and AMD is hoping that IBM's technology will bail them out of a difficult situation.
