Maxwell,

Re: "In addition AMD will have access to MOT latest technology in copper
and SOI. So watch out Intel."

Yes Maxwell, this is very worrisome for Intel ... After all, the Alpha was
probably selling maybe a few thousand units a month at its peak. Yes Maxwell,
a true success story ... And to think that an Alpha only cost $50,000+ per
CPU. These should sell like "hotcakes". Are you really sure that these
are the right designers for the K8 ... I was thinking maybe you should move
this team directly to the "double secret" K9 project. <ggg>

Make It So,
Yousef

Maxwell,

Looks like the DEC boys left Intel with a lemon fab. and jumped ship fast.

It's great that AMD has picked up some of this talent.

Onward and upward.

Kash
