Intel RH/T

When this arrives is anyones guess but from the read it would seem they have a working Compiler. Its called Mitosis

IMO , all the reverse BS on both sides is grossly exagerated.I've never came across anything similar like reverse HT after reading several hundred AMD tech docs.

The whole idea has a basic flaw ( not to say dumb ) : if a single powerfull core can't extract the entire IPC from a thread , how the hell are going 2 smaller ones be able to do that ?

PS : the future is multithreaded and multicore.
PS 2 : I'm eager to see what happens when the things blows out.

I agree that the future is Multi threads. But let suppose that Intel came out with a IMC not to much unlike ATI'S R520 . I see great possiabilitys in single and multi thread apps. Lets say your running a 2threaded app. and you have a 4 core cpu. with the right kind of memory controller and Mitosis there are great possiabilities here. Cache can do only so much .Besides we both know Intel has to make room for those other 6cores . Cache well play I suspect less importance in Intels future.
