Cringe - Re: "And you are also saying it is smarter to waste VALUABLE die space by cutting off half the L2 cache in Cumine to make it Celeron, and then sell the same part for 1/3 the price? "

You may be interpreting this BACKWARDS.

By using the SAME DIE for both Celeron AND Pentium III, Intel can sell them as Pentium IIIs for 3x the price of Celerons - should they choose to do so.

Get it?

Re: "And it also better to shrink the size of a die 14% and "JACK-UP" the voltage almost the same amount, 13%, right?"

If AMD can do it - why can't Intel ?
