T. - Re: "Why do certain individuals refer to Covington as being "brain dead"?"

Simply out of fear.

The Celeron (old name Covington) will perform as you noted. However, it will be configured as a Slot 1 device and at a fairly low price, will accelerate the conversion of the PC industry to a Slot 1 motherboard.

For those companies that don't make a slot 1 device (ALL OTHER CPU COMPANIES) this eventuality is a real problem.

Ditto for investors in those other companies.
