And the P4 will scale a heck of a lot better from 1.5GHz than the P3 will from 1GHz, even you know that

Given the P3 has not managed to scale one iota above 1GHz, one would hope the P4 does a lot better.

The processor may scale OK but it will be interesting to see how Intel can scale the heatsink. Fins protruding outside the case with the next version perhaps? Or will it be back to the blowhole-in-the case approach?

With all the hints Intel was dropping at the last CC I think we may find P4 does not scale too well until 3Q 2001 and .13 process arrives. And there is plenty of opportunity for another cockup there. A few bouts of copper contamination would not be amusing for Intel.
