Good post from Beamer demonstrating the absurdity of Milo's argument at the time.

Re: And the difference is that TSMC will have 65nm devices in 2002, and Intel will have 45nm devices in 2003.

I hope you realize that my quip was referring to transistor gate lengths (hence: "devices"), not the actual process node. The post was meant to illustrate the belief from the original poster that AMD would have 15nm process in 2009 (when in fact, the article referred once again to transistor gate dimension). If you bothered to look farther back in the conversation, you would recognize this clearly.

Re: GV, none of the Itanium products are going to be high volume without a base of software. It really is that simple. When you see the infrastructure, you should also see a pick up in Itanium 2 sales.

Yes, and I was right when I said this. Itanium sales did indeed pick up when software expanded, and today they are catching up to volumes of Power and SPARC, the last 2 architectures competing in the RISC segments.

Do you notice a trend here, gvtty?

You look up and post old posts of mine with the intention of discrediting me, but you are not smart enough to actually post things where I am proven to be wrong about anything. In fact, you build up my credibility even more with old posts that illustrate my prescience.
