RE: "Mendocino is meant to stem the market losses away from AMD."

Can you explain this? Why would Intel want to stem losses away from AMD?

RE:" Will the net profits from Mendocino offset the losses of cannibalizing the
PII? "

This is vitually impossible.

RE:"From AMD's standpoint however, Mendocino is bullet headed their direction."

But the bullet has a big die and a heavy cost. The real double edged sword is that the Mendocino might even be faster on Winstone 98. Intel will have to keep the MHz lower and tout the still slightly faster FPU of the Pentium II...
