Re: .65u and core enhancement. There is little "enhancement" in 65-nm for the end user until K8L. Power consumption should be down somewhat, but A64 already has decent power consumption so it won't be much of a factor. Clock-for-clock performance of 65-nm rev. G isn't expected to be any better than the current 90-nm rev. F. The first 65-nm AMD desktop CPUs will be practically indistiguishable from the 90-nm ones to most users. Obviously, everybody isn't enamored with Cornholio as much as you and Doug. I'm sure every AMD investor would be enamored with Conroe if AMD was producing and selling it instead of Intel.
