Comment on Intel predicts 10GHz chips by 2011 (from 2000)

Comments

I find it amusing that they predicted 5Ghz chips in 2005 but that pretty much tanked with their inability to make a chip that could both run above 4Ghz and not desolder the holder it was in from its motherboard.

If you will recall however, the last time Intel became obsessed with clock speed it gave AMD a chance to deliver us the Opteron and a 64 bit x86 extension so by all means I'm egging Intel on! :-)
