It's not in the bag yet Intel said they made production 90nm wafer starts in Q3. I have heard no such announcement from AMD yet. I will believe in 90nm from the various companies when I see some products for sale. So far all I have seen is words and guesses. The last data point we have is 130nm, where Intel did indeed lead by almost a year. --Alan
LOL! You guys are too much! You've made up a mythology of your own, agreed amongst yourselves that it's official reality and draw conclusions from there. The reality is Intel posted a great quarter with record processor shipments, record chipset shipments and near record profits. Q4 looks even better. The reality tomorrow is AMD will post it's 9th straight quarterly loss on it's way to 10. They'll promise profits are right around the corner and you'll believe them again. It's the battered wife syndrome.
In my view AMD is doing a very poor job from a distant 2nd place.
