JF, we'll definitely see Willamette in the fourth quarter of this year. It will probably be targeted toward high-end workstations in the beginning. This way, Intel can manage demand and make sure they don't run into another shortage like they did with the 800 MHz Pentium III. Also this way, Intel can charge top dollar for each Willamette and make a boatload of money even with initial low volumes

By the way, I had nothing to do with Willamette, but I'll pass your congratulations on to the people who did, including one of my housemates.
