Paul, Great story. I believe the following points in the story will be the prevailing ones. The hype, however, will be deafening. Not only will Intel launch a worldwide ad campaign, PC makers of every ilk will be announcing new models and upgrades for the Pentium III. Intel is a marketing machine with few parallels. The main reason for the success of PIII is this. I am sure when see the first wave of ads, I will want one these--like countless others. Other analysts see a definite upside for high-end consumer users, one of the big market segments the chip is aimed at initially. I think they are underestimating the corporate acceptance of PIII. When a company buys PCs, they want the latest and faster, whether they need it or not is of no significance. If they purchase a PII, it would be perceived as purchasing "old technology". No one wants to believe that they may be buying something that will be outdated fairly soon. It will come down to psychology and PIII will become a huge success very quickly.
