What probably IS news to you, is that Will-Am-Ette Is targeted at the desktop market, and besides "Christmas"..... "Back To School" is one of the years highest selling times for desktops.


Interesting. When Intel launched the P-Pro, they didn't target it to home consumers, but rather to workstation and business types and who form intel's most profitable end users.

But now we have little speed blazer Willy, which is "perfect" for the Xmas season, but that intel doesn't think would help a workstation user. If I make the daring assumption that intel continues to desire the highest possible ASP's, what does such market segmentation hint about the performance of the chip?
