<Dixon could move to .18u/desktop but the real problem is that this chip is faster clock for clock than the Pentium III.>

No problem. First of all, I think Coppermine, the 0.18 micron desktop version of the Pentium III, will have 256K of on-die cache, but don't quote me on that. Second, if there are two versions of the Pentium III at the same speed, one with on-die cache, and the other with off-chip cache, Intel will just resort to the 'PE' designation to differentiate between the two. Remember that the Dixon is now sold at 266PE, 300PE, 333, and 366. The 266PE and 300PE monikers are supposed to differentiate Dixon from the 266 and 300 MHz mobile Deschutes. It's the Celeron 300 vs. 300A scenario all over again.
