Gary, <Talking about P6 bus, are there any new things coming out for P7>

Differences between P6 and Willamette/Foster bus:

1) Wmt bus quad-pumps data, P6 bus doesn't.
2) Cacheline size (i.e. normal burst transfer) is 64 bytes for Wmt bus, 32 bytes for P6 bus.
3) Wmt bus allows for one request every two clock cycles, P6 bus allows one request every three.
4) Wmt bus data is parity-protected (for some odd reason), P6 bus is ECC-protected.
5) Other minor differences.

And that's about it.
