I suppose so.

Thanks for the info about chipset feature size, I couldn't find it anywhere.

Regards,

Elmer,

Via (and Duron) will be competing against Timna, not Celeron and they'll have to do better than what's posted above to compete very effectively.

What do you think the future Celerons will be? Isn't Timna going to be marketed as Celeron, or will there be a different name?

I don't see where current Coppermine Celeron can go from now on. I guess after 815 is released, and most Coppermines are on 133 MHz FSB, Intel will be able to increase the FSB of Celeron to 100 MHz, so that it has a chance to compete against Duron. Without it, I think Celeron's performance will be awful compared to Duron.
