Paul S.,
RE:"Jim, Now I wonder where you could have possibly heard this ... and ... Making
such pronouncements about AMD's process capability. Really amazing Jim, you
have learned something on this thread after all. <ggg>"...

Ah yes!
I do vaguely recall you mentioning these things...a long, long time ago...before you went on your recent losing streak trying to predict AMDs process technology and their alledged hopelessness at getting the
K6 to run at 300...333...350...366...380...400 MEGACYCLES/SEC...(soon to be 433 and 450MHz) on their .25u process...
You see Yousef, Intel is running out of luck on their .25u process too. At best it's about a half speed grade better than AMDs.
So AMD gets to 500MHz and Intel maybe 533 but AMD may catch Intel at 450 MHz first.
So the race is to see who gets to .18u...

Anyway, thanks for your help in the past...

Jim
