Very nice, Bill.

I'm not convinced that is the way the industry is heading, though. I'm more convinced that Intel and AMD will live within the limits of easily manufactured aircooling solutions.

Intel is working on better solutions than spot optimization; they are redesigning the system. The BTX case is a good example. You can have a great heatsink that will do nothing if the case airflow is poor, etc...

I have yet to see what AMDs engineers are doing, but I suspect they have not the budget to do industry changing designs.
