HKs?

Presumably these silicone babies will form the basis of our up and coming Skynet overlord masters...which I, for one, welcome.

Different Time Lines 

Intel already has 32 nm in limited production for introduction later this year and are starting to test 22 nm parts. The implication that IBM and partners are ahead is just plain wrong.
