Nehalem:

"..he described Intel’s progress with the 2008 Nehalem architecture as “spectacular” – and he reiterated his believe that Intel has an 18 to 24 month lead over its rival..."

This is GREAT news. Anyone have any thoughts on if Nehalem has taped out and Otellini is basing his enthusiasm on that fact?

re: he described Intel’s progress with the 2008 Nehalem architecture as “spectacular”

This is the kind of comment from the CEO that every Intel investor should put in the bank...

Intel CEO compares AMD’s success to a “comet passing in the night”

I hate to see this kind of comment from Intel management. I agree with him far more than I disagree, but it's arrogant, and shows a level of pettiness unbecoming of a CEO, IMO. Talk up the competitive advantage, brag about the performance crown, even take jabs your competition's product. But don't be outright dismissive of the competition, even if you say you aren't with the very next breath. AMD did severe damage to Intel with Opteron and everyone knows that. It's a lot more analogous to a comet impact than a fly-by. Far better to let Intel's superior performance as an MPU manufacturer speak for itself.
