Pentium 5

OK... I actually wasn't following the hardware world when Willamette got replaced by Northwood... I bet they have something on that on that Chip-architect site... I'll take a look.

What's in a name? That which we call a [Pentium] by any other name would [perform] as sweet?

What's in a name?

...oh... yes, up until now, this thread is (apparently) almost purely aesthetic in nature. (I started it, I guess, but wanted to talk about the processor, not just the name, too... 😱 )

Not that the name really is the most important feature on prescott <i>at all</i>, mind you! (at least, well, I hope it isn't...)

Whatever this thread is, it's entertaining. Some people just have WAAY too much time on their hands, arguing semantics. :lol:

Wait. . . I'm one of those people. . . . Dammit!
