Tench - RE: "the server version of that processor (Foster) named after an Australian beer." I thought Intel code names come from river names. "So even if "Willy" stays on track, that doesn't signal the death of Coppermine." I guess in Celeron, Timna, and notebooks, but when Willy comes out I don't see how it would fit in the high end desktop. BTW, I wonder if The Register will pick up on the Willy name (they used Willa-its-original-release-date-be-mette? once). In the UK, Willy has a completely different meaning, but knowing The Register they would probably have the guts to use it.
