Paul, <You [Ali] have finally made a good point !!!>

So the point is good only if it favors your model?
When you will make any points at all? Still
waiting for your "point" on 33W ... Is it a "bad"
point, or what?

Incidentally, do you remember that the 1GIG P3
is specified to work only up to 60 deg.C at
junction? It must be because of "no fan is needed",
right?

More on "thermal issues", as they were coined
by some Intel executive:

These SMP systems were running in AMD's labs 11 months ago, acording to Drew Prairie.

Is Drew Prairie an analyst, or a regular from "Little House on the Prairie"?
