Re: "Their site appears to be down but they ran an article in February saying .18 was ready ..." Rob ... Even Samsung's .25um process is not competitive with Intel's .25um process. I don't expect anything to be different at .18um as well ... Remember Rob, not all .18um process are "developed" equally. <ggg> Samsung has little experience in the CPU process development area. Compaq has a "white elephant" on their hands with Alpha. Kinda makes me laugh. <ggg> ------ You're right.. and you know what makes me giggle a little bit too? At one time Intel was a force to be reckoned with in the DRAM industry... then Samsung came along. Funny thing is, nary a mention of DRAM, RAM, Samsung in "Only the Paranoid Survive." Now that's funny. Just how weak do you think Samsung's .18 copper-based process will be?
