Semiaccurate has done a rather good writeup of this situation: http://semiaccurate.com/2014/02/19/sky-falling-intels-14nm-broadwell/
The bottom line is this:
If even Charlie is saying that Intel is telling the truth and it's going according to plan, then I think we can assume it'll be fine.
The bottom line is this:
So in light of all this, all we can say is, “deep breath people, chill”. There is a delay of Broadwell, it is process related, but it is exactly what Intel said it would be over a month ago. The process is delayed a quarter, Broadwell is still 2H/2014 even if that is a serious blurring of the lines, and nothing has changed. Anyone who thinks this is something new and shocking is simply ignorant of how things work in semiconductors.
If even Charlie is saying that Intel is telling the truth and it's going according to plan, then I think we can assume it'll be fine.
