IBM/NDVA deal and SOI:

“When looking for an additional foundry, Nvidia also sought out technology that would help it boost performance, Perez said. This gave IBM a leg up on the competition… The graphics chipmaker will not use IBM's more exotic manufacturing technologies--such as the silicon-on-insulator technique, which helps reduce power consumption and boost performance--at first, but may use them in the future.

I read “may” as “will”. IBM’s state-of-the-art SOI process looks like a key undercurrent of this deal.

the foremost piece of B.S. ever promulgated
in any area of human knowledge!”
