Andy, Re: "Discussing copper interconnect technology here and as I recall you expressed some reservations about Intel being somewhat behind the curve ..." That is correct ... and ... I believe that Intel is well behind IBM (IBM has 10+ years working with Copper) and probably still a little behind AMD. Now the good news is that this technology won't be needed for Intel's next generation process (.18um) and by the time it is needed, Intel will be ready in manufacturing for Copper. I am not particularly worried about not having Copper available right now. It is mainly being HYPE'd by IBM and others to gain customers. Actually, we DO NOT ant Intel putting this technology into production before Copper is at high yield and "manufacturable" ... AMD's .35um process is a good example of "Not Doing It Right" when it comes to being "manufacturable"!! Make It So, Yousef
