JF, <I wonder how Timna (sp?) will fit in later this year? At retail, right now you have the lower image brand staking out the higher end (perceived) performance, and the higher image brand working the lower price points. Not the best situation, and I imagine confusing for the consumer.>

Can you explain a little further? The purpose of Timna is to further reduce costs by integration. Performance will also improve thanks to the integration (of the memory controller, specifically), but that's a secondary concern. When you say "lower image brand staking out the higher end," what are you specifically referring to?

By the way, I can forsee Timna possibly replacing the entire Celeron line in short order, leaving Pentium III to fill the gap between Timna and Willamette. However, I'm not so sure Intel is planning on doing this.
