Mav,
While I admire Mr. Barrett for taking the fall I strongly believe that Intels misdirection started well in advance of his tenure...with Andy Grove.
Timna was a reaction rather than an action and Rambus was a feeble attempt to set a standard for the purpose of cornering the market first and any speed improvement came second. P4 is just a Rube Goldberg device designed for speed leaving a lot of clock cycles unused. Ok...so with the Mhz it will run some benchmarks well...but it appears patchwork at the very least.
