PB - RE: "However, this was probably to be the target vehicle to get the Coppermine to the Mainstream segment, regardless of the i820 situation. I.e., Christmas sales to the Mainstream Consumer space, so I bet it's not a total dog. Speaking intuitively again." It will be a dog in games. An Athlon 500 with a real video card may be faster than an "E" 700 on the i810E. PB, how about you do us a favor - Loan Anand an "E" processor w/o a NDA. We won't tell Intel, promise. ;)))

PB, <However, this was probably to be the target vehicle to get the Coppermine to the Mainstream segment, regardless of the i820 situation. I.e., Christmas sales to the Mainstream Consumer space, so I bet it's not a total dog. Speaking intuitively again.> You may be right, but the recent indications are that BXs are going to be the primary platform. Also, I think the irony of using 810 platform, designed for low-end Celerons, in midrange/highend designs would be inescapable. Chuck
