Food for thought... stretching out releases also delays the next-next-generation. The way the most recent roadmaps from both companies play out, being slow continues to work out just fine for Intel for several years to come.
However, XBit only rehashed a story written by EETimes. Follow the link back, and you find that they left out an important quote:

'Our long stated position has been that Nehalem will be in production in Q4 '08,'' according to a spokesman for Intel, in response to the report. ''We are on track for that. There has been no change.''
So one analyst felt like making headlines. He may just be a fool.
As far as Intel is concerned, it shouldn't delay their next offering, as per the tick-tock model.
