Chuckles - Re: "Granted Wilamette just saw silicon and it ain't a fair comparision but from what I can tell Thunderbird currently is running at much higher frequencies than W* and is pretty darned close to production"

NO !!!

That can't BE !!!

Expert McMannis said Willamette was DELAYED another 6 months or more !

Re: " weeks when Intel is expected to get a W* demo (if it gets to 1G that is). "

Willamette may NEVER get to 1 GHz - if it NEVER TAPES OUT !

Besides - the Willamette isn't SPRY - like the AthWipey !

Re: "from what I can tell Thunderbird currently is running at much higher frequencies than W* and is pretty darned close to production."

So the ThumperBurp exists, eh ? And is CLOSE to production, eh ?

That must mean 1 GHz very soon - eh?
