Re: "How much of Willy is McKinley, I don't know. The article only states "the same processor bus" as McKinley.
Our Intel employees probably cannot comment without risk.
We will see soon enough."

It's bus protocol. That doesn't mean Willy is based on McKinley. Just a protocol

Steve, <How much of Willy is McKinley, I don't know. The article only states "the same processor bus" as McKinley.>

Willamette and McKinley do not share any similar features (or if they did, it'd be due to coincidence).

As for the processor bus, the article is incorrect. The McKinley bus is not the same as the Willamette/Foster bus.
