wbmw, you are wrong in both counts. Intel was making good dough but they got greedy with the celeron and they were trying to wipe out ALL competition. The coppermine was the internal code name but in almost all ads that I saw when it came out OEM's and resellers printed the code name next to the P3 name to distinguish the new chip from its predecessor. If only a few did it, I would have ignored it as a coincidence but almost ALL of them did it and that struck me as being suspicious especially at a time when the chief competitor ( Athlon ) was moving to copper. C p.s. If I were looking to buy a CPU at the time and was taken by the marketing of copper being better ( I was ), I would have definitely been confused by the name coppermine.
