Hi, Petz. Willamette Pricing

I did see these links this weekend.
The remarkable point here is indeed the Willamette pricing:

PIII-1100 MHz, August ==> $990,=
Willamette 1300 MHz October ==> $795,=
Willamette 1400 MHz October ==> $895,=

This seems to be a first "official" confirmation from
Intel that the clock-for-clock performance is significantly
lower for the Willamette when compared with Coppermine.
The pricing suggest that a Willy-1400 is about equal to a CuMine-1100.

This is roughly the pattern we saw with the first
"benchmarks" and from what could be expected from the architecture.

I absolutely don't believe in the possibility of a pricewar.
(1) Willamette will only be about 0.3% to 0.5% of the total
number of processors sold by Intel this year.
(2) There is an over-demand situation.

Time to get long-term Bullish with confidence again!

Regards, Hans.
