Kevin - Re: "in boosting the PIII very far beyond 500 MHz, until they do the .18u shrink."

What do you mean "until" ?

Intel's Q498 earnings press release contained the following note - completely overlooked by the usual asleep-at-the-switch analysts:

intel.com

" ** Intel has accelerated initial production on its 0.18 micron process technology and plans to offer the first microprocessor manufactured on this advanced process in the first half of 1999."

If Intel says 0.18 micron devices are going to be released next quarter, it is a safe assumption that 0.18 micron devices are in-hand at Intel going through final check out and reliability qualification.
