Advanced Micro Devices Inc (AMD)

I am intrigued. If they are skipping 90nm, AMD may be playing a very powerful trump card.

This is nonsense. Moore's law works because the entire industry busts its butt to keep
up with this self-fulfilling prophecy. AMD can't get to 65 nm any faster by skipping 90 nm,
the equipment, masks, resists etc won't be there. If AMD chooses to skip 90 nm and go
straight to 65 nm then it will be selling 130 nm devices for twice as long and against
competing 90 nm devices and it won't survive to see 65 nm.
