Thanks for the URL.

Sharky seems as confused as I am regarding all this proliferation.

Now Tom has updated his site with his desktop roadmap

tomshardware.com

Check out how many different chips in various form factors Intel will have for sale in Q4. I count about 20!

I feel sorry for the vendors...

RE: <Sharky Extreme's Intel roadmap for the rest of 1999 and early 2000>

I don't know if Sharkey's info is accurate but he says:

"Gamers might not be waiting on their haunches ... for the i810e & SDRAM but Intel plans on pitching this chipset straight into the Performance Mainstream and Value PC market segments. Just to re-iterate, the i810e will not only support the Celeron line of processors but also the Pentium III, which will come in handy for the 133MHz FSB versions of the Pentium III"

While Sharkey and his Gamers are not impressed this sounds like the beginning of the giant ripping sound as Intel pulls the rip cord on their "Sky Dive Towards DRDRAM on the Desktop" that I have been preaching about. The significance is lost on Sharkey but the only missing link to a really big story is: "If i810e supports Pentium III then doesn't it also support Coppermine?" If this proves true then the really big story will be: "Intel insists that the world switch to Rambus on the desktop for Coppermine in September but this i810e loophole allows OEMs to use sdram instead and MOST OF THEM CHOOSE TO DO SO!!!!"

Anyone still saying Who Cares should wonder how this will affect rmbs shareholders. 1. Bad publicity 2. Delayed rampup of drdram volume 3. Falling rmbs price.
