Tony,
INTC has been the only stock I have held for more than a year, so I will wait on the future. I'm new to AMD which began for me the first of August last year.

While your here,

DEC and Intel was working on a joint project for a new CPU.
Things kinda went bad, Intel came out with the Pentium Pro and DEC sued over the allegations that Intel used some of the DEC technology. (Something like that)
techweb.com
Which was settled for $700 Million.

Now what might start me to question Willamette, is this article:
ebns.com

Near the bottom is:
McComas noted that since the Willamette uses the same
processor bus as Foster and McKinley
, it could interface with
the ServerWorks' DDR chipset instead of Tehama and Direct
Rambus, if Intel decides to make the move.

Now the question is: Has Intel crossed all the Tees and dotted all the Eyes if they are using the HP McKinley joint technology to rush their own x32 Willamette to market?

Doesn't take much to see HP getting a little upset as DEC did, depending how much of McKinley is HP.

We may never know.
