Rumours have even surfaced that Intel will delay releasing its 45nm mainstream quad-core processors, simply because AMD isn't able even to match the existing 65nm designs. That sort of rumour deserves to be taken with a pinch of salt, but there's little doubt that the replacement for the current desktop 65nm quad-core parts are waiting in the wings and will be unleashed early this year.
On top of that, Intel has already publicly discussed the move to six- and eight-core CPUs in 2008-2009.
