   Yes, I agree. This is considerable progress. AMD must keep up that pace and accelerate it. Intel's already at 45nm production. AMD cannot afford slow down in ramping up speed and will be critical to launch their 45nm parts with BIG speed increases on time. Any more delays and they will no longer exist as "AMD," in my opinion.
