Beamer - Re: "At this rate, by the time Intel gets to 90nm manufacturing, leakage will be out of control. There has to be another solution. Yes, I know SOI is a solution, but quite possibly Intel may have another one that works better." I think you are getting lost in the trees here - after following the AMDroid bozos. There are many sources of "leakage" - but the primary contributor here is NOT substrate leakage - that is, leakage current through the bulk silicon - it is sub-threshold conduction - the source-drain current below the gate that occurs when the gate is in the OFF state. SOI has no impact on this leakage current. Paul
