RE: <Coppermine will launch at 667MHz because of the holdover P856 version, she said.>

What a mysterious sentence. I believe that P856 is the 0.25u process. Does this mean that there was an 0.25u Coppermine? Or are they starting with the 0.25u PIII, shrinking it in a way that doesn't use the full P858 and then adding L2 cache?

Also, wasn't the original plan to intro the 0.18u Cumine at 600 MHz? Now they are kludging around but moving up to 667 MHz. Very strange.
