<Kash - re: Is cascades a different core?>

No, the same P6 core. As for the rest of your questions, I hope you get substantive answers. I have had hard time getting any answers on this thread lately. It is pretty easy to get flamed though.

kash - <Anyway whats the difference between a PIII coppermine and cascades.>

Coppermine and Cascades are not the same die. Not sure of the feature differences.

Kash, I think Tom may have got his information confused. From what I know already, Coppermine is P6 core w/ 256K on-die cache, and Cascades is the same thing except with 1MB on-die cache. I think the processors can either run on 100 or 133 MHz buses.

I don't know if there'll be a Slot 2 version of Coppermine. It would make sense, considering the number of dual-Slot-2 motherboards out there.
