Goutama - <Also, as I think of more and more about the lack of PIII-733EB parts in the channel, it's becoming more clear to me that Coppermine 733MHZ was released to save Craig Barret's honor (remember about his proclamation of releasing 7xxMHZ Coppermine parts in a recent Intel developers forum). PIII-733EB-CBH ;o)>

Also, Otellini said that he is utterly confident that whatever speed grade Intel releases, it will be in volume.

I guess there is a choice whether to believe him or not.

Also worth repeating; I wonder how much the i820 delay has to do with the 733's being somewhat in short supply? If there is an impending release of i820 before the end of the year, might the OEM's who are going to release i820 based systems be getting the lions share of 733's?

But if you really want one, CPQ has a couple of i840 / 733 systems on their Website, and Micron has a 733 system also.

I'm curious if the report of i820 systems at Comdex is true.

I will take this opportunity to grovel a little bit: I did expect to see more Coppermines in the channel post launch. This is obviously not the case. I was flat wrong, as I did not anticipate a situation where demand was such that the OEM's would be getting virtually all Coppermine shipments post launch.

Best I can tell, some disti's are expecting Coppermine product in the middle of November.
