Tenchusatsu,

<Believe it or not, Pentium III should continue to exist even past 2001. As for Timna, I think Intel is aggressively going to replace the entire Celeron line with Timnas. The dividing lines between Pentium III (Coppermine) and Timna should still be there.>

This is what I was getting at (You were wondering what Spitfire will do when Timna comesup). I think AMD will be positioning Spitfire against PIII. Thunderbird/Mustang line will compete with Wilamette/Foster. Timna probably will compete more with VIA offerings than anything else.

<Yes, I've heard of those two cores. And unless AMD has more planned for Mustang and Sledgehammer than what they've announced, they will lose to Willamette and Foster.>

Clearly neither AMD nor Intel want to show all their cards yet. I expect surprises from both sides.

< (Of course, I'm still worried that AMD really does have an "ace up its sleeve" like you guys keep implying.)>

I have no idea who "you guys" are and what they have been implying. May be you can ask the "you guys" to clarify what they are saying.
