Elmer, Re: "AMD's statement that Hammer silicon was imminent says to me that they're trying to tapeout but they're having layout problems. Otherwise AMD would have simply said hammer taped out and it's in fab."

Or it could simply mean that Hammer silicon is imminent. What would the analysts care about: some nebulous tapeout date or the date for actual silicon?

Elmer - Re: "Intel's third generation IA-64 CPU, Madison, the first one to be designed on a 0.13 micron copper process, is within one or two weeks of tape-out.
That's great news Paul!!!"

Yep - Intel is making good progress on the 64-bit front.

Re: "AMD's statement that Hammer silicon was imminent says to me that they're trying to tapeout but they're having layout problems. Otherwise AMD would have simply said hammer taped out and it's in fab."

I guess that's AMD's way of QuantEnronSpeak !!
