Maui,

The point was, can anyone (AMD) else transition to 90nm in less time than Intel and narrow the gap of 6 months ?

AMD plans 90nm to be a two-quarter transition, just like their previous generations. Intel takes well over a year (maybe 6 quarters) to get all their x86 product on to a new geometry. So AMD will beat Intel to the 90nm volume crossover point, even if Intel ships first.
