Paul, >Here is what is quite interesting about this stepping - the Pentium III has been SHRUNK from 105 sq. mm to only 90 sq. mm.!!!!

Paul, that is very good news. The sky over AMD will be dark with Pentium IIIs flying over from "Satan Clara."

Re: ", this reduced die size - and hence 15+% more die per wafer - will result in improved availability - essentially giving Intel an instant 15% CAPACITY EXPANSION - once the new reticle set is universally adopted throughout the Fabs producing Pentium IIIs!"

Actually 15% more die per wafer should result in about 18% more good die as smaller die yield higher than larger die.
