Intel: EUV-Enabled 7nm Process Tech is on Track

People need to be very careful about Intel's definition of "on track". A couple examples below -

In 2016, Intel confirmed that "10nm chips still on track for 2017"

In 2017, Intel announced that "Intel’s 10nm process technology is on track to commence manufacturing in 2H’17"

Technically they did sell some 10nm chips in 2H'17. It's just that the GPUs didn't work at all and the CPU cores had poor yields and worse power usage than 14nm so they got shuffled off to obscure OEMs.
