Advanced Micro Devices Inc (AMD)

Bull. Products can and will continue to receive speedpath optimizations, process improvements, and minute design changes, all within the lifecycle of the product.

Some vendors like Intel can do that, others don't have the money, time,
design resources, or simply the same economic incentive to continuously
respin a working and released device.

In the case of AMD I agree that it also engages in spin for bin. My comment
wasn't to argue that it doesn't do this but rather that if AMD did have a 2.5 GHz
part in 130 nm IMO it would have *already* been squeezed to death and it
wasn't getting any faster until 90 nm.
