George, I think the reporter misunderstood what the Via guy was
explaining to him. MCMs are damned expensive, just for the package -
and expensive is not Via's thing at all. I believe this thing is one
chip/dual core all the way, esp. at 90 nanometers.
Hmm, maybe a mini-MCM??... hard to tell if they intended to do the "twin
core" on a sinlge die or not.
Slightly OT: this will go down very well in their target market of PRC and
other far-east countries. I dunno if you've seen what the Chinese font
sets do to performance of a single CPU; having a 2nd CPU to handle things
will be a big win.
