Ali, Re: "And I don't, and posted a list of concerns.
Where is your substantiated counter-list?"


A lot of "concerns" from your list were unsubstantiated. You simply said you thought they were pathetic. I, in the other hand, liked a lot of the announcements from IDF. Most especially, I was impressed with the way Intel was able to proliferate the X-Scale design, putting it in Cell Phones, PDAs, I/O Processors, and programming Networking CPUs. And it seems to offer far more performance at much less power. Does that sound like zero-experience engineering?

They also mentioned at IDF that the mobile Pentium 4 will have a 50% reduction in power. Your previous concern was over the high leakage levels in Intel's .13u processors. It seems that the mobile Northwood may be better suited for mobile than you thought. Not bad for engineers with zero-skill.

Re: "And who will be the judge if it is constructive
or not?"


By constructive, I mean "tactful". Is it so hard to post concerns without making them sound derogatory?
