Fyodor Re...I'd be seriously surprised if anything on SOI was out before late Q3. And that would be in severely limited volumes.<<<<<<

Thanks. I believe dan also said that it would take longer than 1 q. for production because additional testing needed to be done.

For the past several days we have wondered about Durons. Here may be an answer courtesy to AMDzone

Duron Outsells Celeron In Western Europe
Reported by: Chris Tom At: 10:07 AM Source: e-mail
Mario let me know about this pdf at the AMD site showing that the Duron is outselling the Celeron in Western Europe. The same file shows that 2 of 5 retail systems in Japan are powered by the Duron. Page 3 has the details.


AMDzone also had this story. EE Times has a story on the challenge of SOI. IBM plans to refute any claims chipzilla has made about SOI at this years Internation Electron Devices Meeting. AMD is using SOI technology in many of their CPUs next year. They worked with IBM and Motorola on the new wafer technology.<<<<<
