Charles - <Are you naive enough to believe that Intel will risk Christmas sales (per Intel's own admission if you care to go back and check my postings from yesterday) to please some OEMs who not nimble enough to support phased introduction?> Pfft. There are probably marketing reason's also for a big splash launch. I would think the October "pull-in" for the desktop part is a much bigger deal than a 2-4 week "delay" for the Mobile part. I find it odd the story is delay for mobile part rather than pull-in for desktop part. Charles, weren't you prognosticating a scant few weeks ago that you didn't see how Intel could get Coppermine to market for Christmas? I believe you said something like, "if [Intel] is able to do it, I've learned a powerful lesson." Regardless, as an Intellabee, I'm ecstatic that Coppermine will be on the shelves for Christmas. BTW, I have no visibility on what "the real story" is on the mobile part in regard to what the interaction is between Intel and the OEM's. PB
