One can make an educated guess, but that is what it remains and going forward should be treated as such.
He doesn't work for Intel and btw, the laws of physics apply to any company. His "educated guess" is much more educated than yours or mine since it is backed by over a quarter of a century experience in semis.

What do you understand by "a couple of months " ?
1? 2? 3 months is a Q, he would have said so.

Llano was supposed to ship before Ontario.
Let's see :
-Ontario was planned for Q1 2011
-Llano was Q4 2010
Now :
-Ontario is Q4 2010
-Llano is "shipping for revenue" in H1 2011. Shipping for revenue != launch.

It doesn't take a genius then to figure out that BD is also affected by the delay, it's closely linked to the process and not in a vacuum.
