Dale, Re: "AMD is not shooting for high penetration of Clawhammer at 130nm. The 130nm Clawhammer will be essentially a platform development node, much like the original 220nm K7." I hope for AMD's sake that they get significantly more penetration than that. Why else would Jerry be pounding fists on the podium shouting, "Hammer, Hammer, Hammer" if AMD didn't plan on proliferating the design early? Is 2003 the Year of the Hammer, or are you saying that it's really the Year of the Platform Development Node? Re: "AMD will, in fact, not be able to do major shipments of the 90nm desktop Clawhammer until Q2 2004, forcing them to ship a low unit volume 130nm M4400 Clawhammer instead of a high unit volume 90nm M4400 Clawhammer as planned." Hmm? Where do you get this "fact"? Isn't that three quarters past what they have on their public roadmaps? wbmw

dale - Re: "The 130nm Clawhammer will be essentially a platform development node, much like the original 220nm K7." Sorta like the ITanium, eh ? Better tell that to your Droid buddies - they think the ClamHamster will outsell toothpaste in about 9 months ! Re: "AMD is however targeting rapid unit sales crossover for Clawhammer versus Athlon XP at the 90nm node, which they plan on reaching in mid-2003. " Sure - the 0.13 micron SOI process is about 18 months late - and still isn't in production - and won't be until Q4 2002. And you think MAD will get to 0.09 just 6 or 9 months after that time? I think the word naive applies here. Paul
