Constantine, Re: "probably some merit to what you are saying but the Thoroughbred which is full .13 is expected to break the 2Ghz barrier."

It was also "expected" that the Athlon would reach 1.5GHz in Q1 2001. It took three more quarters to launch that, so how can you take for granted anything AMD says is "expected"? I think it will take SOI before AMD breaks the "2GHz barrier".

Re: "The max for the .13 celeron is probably 1.66 Ghz pushing it. I am getting that by seeing the benefit the PIII got going from .25 to .18 ( 600Mhz->1Ghz which is 66% ) and that included improvements to the core. What do you think?"

Somewhere along the 1.66GHz range sounds about right to me. If Intel really pushed the .13u Celeron, they may even hit 1.8GHz. After all, Intel demoed a Pentium 4 at 3.5GHz. Don't you think they could get a P6 core to half that speed on the same process?
