Steve, Where do you think Intel went wrong on the Prescott? My guess has been wonderVP Gelsinger in which no one had the balls to tell him the P4 was a POS.

Nothing was really wrong with the Northwood version of P4, IMO. In hindsight, I think we should have just taken that core, shrunk the pipeline somewhat, and enhanced it for lower power.

As for Gelsinger, I think you're being a little hard on him. I have no idea whose bright idea it was to lengthen the Prescott pipeline and make Intel run smack into a brick wall labeled "HEAT," but I doubt that was a decision driven by Gelsinger himself.
