Kevin - Re: "Intel has no plans to offer 266mhz Pentiums for
desktop machines I take it."

This is an excellent point. The 0.25 micron Pentium MMX part runs at a very low voltage supply - 1.8 volts and would require modifcation of power supplies and motherboards of existing PCs.

Rather that force two transitions on the MB industry, Intel seems intent on winding down the Pentium MMX for Desktops and ramping up the Pentium II/Slot 1 as their main Desktop strategy.

So, my guess is that the 0.25 Micron Pentium MMX will be a mobile only device.
