Yes, but don't get over-excited by hype from Intel. Recently Intel has
found it much easier to produce new roadmaps than actual product.
These 65nm process chips won't be in volume production till mid-2006.

AMD seems to be plugging away producing new chips while Intel is still
redesigning.

Besides, who needs faster chips anyway? 
(Apart from Doom3 gamers, that is ;)  )
