I want one! Too bad we have to wait until Q4 to get it (that's according to <A HREF="http://www.cnbc.com/news/news/conewsstory.html?sym=AMD&id=N26378991" target="_new">Intel's latest statements</A>). It also sounds like we will see a 2GHz .18 micron CPU in Q3 (I sure don't understand why Intel is even bothering with that)!

I want a Palomino....BTW the next P4 looks just like the pentium MMX did! History repeats itself...The Pentium 233 MMX was a kick butt CPU, the only Intels I ever touched.

when its Q4 there will be a $hit load of program with SSE2 instruction. With a Improve FPU "L2 512kb, double pumped ALU". Its going to be a war.

The only nice Intel guy.

So, 'what has it done for me lately'?
(SSE2)

Photoshop 6 has a new plugin for SSE2. It whips the best athlon or MAC !!!!

The only nice Intel guy.

Na, when Northwood finaling shows up, it will most likely continue Intel's trend of not being about to produce a cpu in quanities. I'm sure its going to be a lot better than the P4, but at that time the clawhammer will be out, out of the design specs; its just a far better design.

Whatever are you talking about?

Look at Intel's paper launches the last couple of years and that is what I am talking about. I know from the small oem business end. Having to wait almost 3 months for a 1 gig PIII for customers is not something that made me happy. When the P4 was brought out, it was also a paper launch. Most of the high end coppermine launches were paper launches. Need I say more?
I know you work for Intel in the software department, but Intel has dropped the ball and gotten lazy. Programmers and Engineers don't run Intel anymore.....only accounts and fat managers.....
