In Hans Mosesmann's own words: Re-confirm Willamette Status Mosesmann is the guy who asked Otellili on Willamette status in Intel CC. Below is portion of Mosesmann's research report that confirmed that Willamette will not ship for AT LEAST a year. ****************** <<Athlon Could Be Positioned As The Fastest x86 Processor By Year End We believe AMD is being conservative here given our industry checks which point to 750 MHz Althon availability by the fourth-quarter of this year. With the current Althon die size of 184mm, approximately 50% larger than a Pentium III, the shift to 0.18 microns should reduce the size of the Althon die to that of the Pentium III and allow for much higher volumes of production. If this pans out for the company, we believe that AMD could be in position to have faster processors than Intel for the first time ever. Given that Intel's next generation 32-bit x86 chip (code named Willamette) will likely not ship for another year at least,** AMD may have an opening. However, we remain skeptical given past execution problems.>>
