Mike, Re: "The semiconductor company this week plans to discuss its progress in exploiting Mr. Ovshinsky's work, at a conference in San Francisco that will highlight a series of semiconductor milestones. Intel also will provide new details concerning a microprocessor, code-named McKinley, that may shape the company's fortunes in high-end computing over the coming few years." It sounds like they are going to discuss a new memory technology, and they are also going to discuss McKinley. I think you might have accidently crossed the two. As others have pointed out, Ovonics memory is a Flash technology. It and cache just don't go together (at least at this point). Here is some info on Intel's flash technologies if you want to look things up. You may want to forward this to your informant, as well. :-) intel.com wbmw
