Dear Pravin:

Intel always says "wait till (our) next (super duper) processor". When it comes out, its found to be just a rehash with some new bugs (errata in Intelspeak) to get anyone excited. Most of the new features is just more cache and a few instructions that aren't all that valuable which need a new socket, new chipsets and a few revisions to get it right after release. After 3rd party testing with old benchmarks, they find its slower than the old one and needs new software and recoded benchmarks to see some, if any, improvement at all.
