I realize the competitive nature of the two companies, but INTC was denying SOI was necessary. Now it's Necessary. Did you read IBM's SOI paper that Kap presented and how IBM had already looked at depleted SOI before. Elmer was waiting for your comments on this topic and I'm always willing to listen. M.

Never said that IBM's engineers are idiots... just that they may not have approached the problem from the same angle that Intel did. I would say that in all honesty the top people at IBM and the top people at Intel are in the very top percentile for intelligence and motivation. Fingolfen, nice post, and fair too. IBM and Intel are the top two, and who is the distant third? You have a lot more patience than I do, fielding a post from someone that accuses you of calling IBM engineers idiots. Somebody ought to look in the mirror. Tony
