Are you aware of any commercial software house using the Intel compiler?

I'm not a software guy, nor do I have access to that kind of proprietary information... but given that Intel is generally quite generous in providing compilers, and that all future x86 processors will support SSE2 (from both Intel AND AMD), if they're not using it, they're idiots.

Not even close, and P4 requires dual channel.

If you're buying 256Meg of RAM, you're buying two sticks unless you're in the top 0.5% of users. DDR is still bloody expensive, and to date has offered minimal performance improvement. I still strongly disagree with your point, and you've yet to even speak to the parallels between the current P4 and the Pentium.
