Tench, sorry to but in but where Intel was deceptive is the fact that it had trained consumers to expect each successive cpu to have a higher IPC and higher frequencies that its predecessor. All of a sudden they abandon that philosophy with no mention anywhere. Consumers that were used to the 286->386->486->Pentium->Pentium2->Pentium3 line of cpus were obviously expecting a similar boost of ipc and frequency from the P4. What they got with Wilamette was a disgrace. I am not faulting Intel for releasing the P4, they had to in order to compete with the Athlon but they should have been more truthful to the consumer.
