Pravin,

I think we can count on limited volumes of Willamette being shipped to Dell in the July-August time frame.

Willamette just got first silicon a couple of months ago. It will have to go through compatibility testing on thousands of applications which will turn up dozens of bugs in the CPU and chipset. In addition, it has new instructions which must work properly.

I will be very surprised if Willy is ready for production that quickly.
