Re: In fact, AMD is going to replace several 90nm mainstream SKUs by 65nm SKUs next quarter already.

Will they replace the 5600+ and 6000+ with 65nm equivalents, or are these not part of the 100% wafer conversion mentioned before. Maybe the 100% wafer conversion is a misunderstanding, and the right interpretation is that AMD has converted 100% of overlapping desktop skus (1.9GHz - 2.6GHz range) to 65nm.

It would be hard to believe, for example, that they have already shifted 100% of their mobile and server skus to 65nm, when they haven't even launched the first of these skus yet to market.

News to me. I haven't heard of replacements next q. Not ruling out OEM-availability of some SKU in 65nm. They run quite a bunch of wafers in fab36 and sell what comes out and meets criteria, aside from semantics of dev/prod.
