Obviously, IBM would like to be a competitor of Intel but they have not done too well there IMHO. Copper has some interesting potential but it is hardly a watershed technology. Paul may have more detail on what impact it is likely to have on Intel's design thinking.

RE: Copper

Intel has an interesting patent on copper that appears to (a non-expert) to have great blocking power. There is no publicity on the terms for companies licensing their technology to one another.

It has been reported that Intel will not introduce copper interconnects until 0.13 micron process for IA-64 is introduced in 2001 probably in second generation of McKinley.
