I thought that INTC was planning on making 85% of its MOBO's, so why do they need the 3rd party MOBO manufacturers for Willy platforms?

Barry, from The YUK Register,

Willamette is scheduled to appear towards the end of this year, at clock speeds rising to 1.4GHz but conversations with a number of motherboard vendors has revealed they have no plans to support it.

Instead, they will wait for the next generation, codenamed Tulloch, which Intel has told them will arrive in the second quarter of next year.


Basically, whoever feed this rumor to the YUK is full of it. Tulloch is a Willamette chipset, but the YUK is referring to it as some sort of processor.

Re: "Some clarity on this topic would be appreciated from a knowledgeable source"

To further underscore the credibility of the Register, Tulloch is a next generation chipset, not a processor.
