In my imagination the law of Moore had more to do >with a 2 fold 'speedup' rather than Mhz increasement? Actually it was neither. It was about circuit density. However, that _is_ proportional to speed, although not directly to mhz/ghz clock frequency. IE more density could mean more pipes rather than faster pipes.
